To mark #WorldSeaTurtleDay the British High Commission joined

UN Environment Programme,  UN-Habitat, Kenya Wildlife Service, KMFRI, Baus_Taka_Enterprise & Tide Turners Champs from the Kenya Girl Guides Association & Kenya Scouts movements for a beach clean-up in Mombasa. We picked up 300 kgs of plastic in just 1 hour!

Plastics may be everywhere, but so is the will to find solutions. Let's work together, raise awareness, and implement sustainable practices to tackle the plastic problem. #BeatPlasticPollution #WorldEnvironmentDay2023

It is an absolute honor to witness Tide Turners, the world’s largest youth-led movement against the plastic crisis launch phase 5.

Global Launch: Tide Turners Plastic Challenge 2023

Witness as nations unite to flag a new chapter of the world's largest youth-led movement on plastic pollution.

Catch the global launch of the Tide Turners Plastic Challenge on April 20 2023, to get inspired...

Whose with me on this noble initiative?

Go Blue Beach clean-up was a success.

Over 60 Scouts and Guides joined in the cleanup event whose aim is to reduce marine litter on the beach & underwater sensitive ecosystems (corals reefs and seagrasses) as well as provide a platform for knowledge transfer & awareness raising

2022 goal is to reach 150k Tide Turners in 🇰🇪

Join Inger Andersen and six Tide Turners Champions as they share their perspectives on why action on plastic pollution matters to them.

Our global waste levels increase by 25-30% every Christmas 🎄 and nearly everything ends up in landfills 😢
Have a Merry sustainable Christmas

Plastic NEVER goes away. EVER. Every piece of plastic ever manufactured still exists today, unless repurposed into another material. And what's worse is less than 10% of it has ever been recycled ♻️. Yup, you read that right. Action starts with you and Bryan. Act now

Welcome back Jack Wilshere
Great to have you return

Super impressive #India great to see the transformation of the Mahim beach #Turning the tide on plastic #tide -turners

Sad indeed 😢. The image below is proof that waste is a waste and can endanger any specie in our oceans.

The US is rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement today. A Biden- Harris administration will mean progress towards dealing with green house gas emissions mitigation #InaugurationDay 💚

Meet NS Rajappan. He cannot walk as he is paralysed below his knees. Uses his hands to move around. Everyday Rajappan gets into his small boat & collect plastic bottles from Vembanad lake in India 🇮🇳. All alone. We should make him famous.

Pleased to see my friends Elizabeth Wathuti , O.G.W 🇰🇪 and Wanjira Mathai efforts to save the iconic fig tree a success#greenspaces

It’s now time to recognize our #PlasticTideTurners & we are glad to have Bryan Michuki of UN Environment Programme Bryan Michuki do us the honors. 💃💃
