THE RAINS CARRY PLASTIC, TOGETHER WE CAN REMOVE IT.

Help us Continue to Turn the Tide this Rainy Season.

When heavy rains wash plastic into Bali’s rivers, your donation helps stop it before it reaches the ocean.

Each year, from November through early Spring, the Bali Rainy Season brings heavy monsoon rains that overwhelm local waste systems and push massive volumes of plastic and debris from inland communities into rivers and out to sea. This intense window accounts for some of the highest concentrations of ocean-bound pollution each year, making rapid intervention essential.

80% of the plastic pollution that ends up in the ocean is estimated to come from land-based sources, with rivers acting as the primary pathway. Our river boom system is designed to prevent this transportation of trash, acting as a netted barrier device that contains the waste before it can reach the ocean. Between cleanups, these booms actively stop the flow of trash downstream and hold the accumulation of debris in one area, enabling the crew to make a big impact in a short amount of time.

Unfortunately, trash still makes its way along other water systems and into the ocean. By conducting cleanups in estuaries, along coastlines, and in the ocean, with the operation of our highest-capacity marine vessel, the Dugong, the team can more efficiently manage the dispersion of waste before it floats beyond our reach. 

Every donation powers our ongoing cleanup efforts in Bali, reducing plastic pollution and helping restore a healthy ocean full of life. Pound by pound, each bag of trash collected lessens the burden on our environment, allowing nature to breathe a little easier and for the restoration of marine ecosystems. 

Join us in continuing to protect the Ocean during one of the most critical moments of the year.

It Starts With A Crazy Idea

“When my friend and I first started 4ocean, we were just two surfers trying to clean the ocean. We never imagined that our scrappy little startup would become a global cleanup operation that recovers millions of pounds of trash from the world’s ocean, rivers, and coastlines every year. But we did it like we’ve always done it… one pound of trash at a time.”
Alex Schulze - Co-Founder + CEO
