Protect Waterways with Data

The U.S. National Park System encompasses some of the most diverse and unique landscapes, from the icy waters of Kenai Fjords to the waterfalls of Yosemite to the coral reefs of Dry Tortugas. Wherever you live, there’s a national park or federal land nearby that needs your help! By collecting data on plastic pollution through our Plastic-Free Parks project, you’re supporting science-based solutions that protect our parks.

Protect Waterways with Legislation

We’re working to advance policies that reduce two major sources of microplastic pollution affecting our nation’s waterways. Plastic pellets (AKA nurdles) often spill during production and transport, while microfibers shed from our clothes during laundering. These microplastics pose serious risks to both the environment and public health, but YOU can help drive solutions!
