Let's Partner

We've got momentum.

The Metrics Behind the Mission

Certified B Corp

United By Blue has been a certified B Corp since 2011, verifying our commitment to socially and environmentally responsible business.

Product-for-Pound

United By Blue removes one pound of trash for every product sold, leaving us with 12 years of expertise in executing waterway cleanups through business.

UN Sustainable Development Goal: Life Below Water

United By Blue cleanup programs and partnerships contribute towards global goals for ocean and waterway health.

The State of Our Blue Planet

  • By 2050

    Scientists predict there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish (by weight).

  • 5.25 Trillion

    Estimated pieces of plastic and trash are currently in the ocean.

  • About 80%

    Of trash in the ocean started out as land based and traveled through rivers, whereas the other 20% comes from fishing gear and dumped debris.

  • It's Not Just Us Who Care

    83% of the general public are concerned about issues affecting the ocean. Plastic pollution is seen as the top priority for restoring ocean health by both the business/public sector and the general public.

How it Works

Join United By Blue as we tackle ocean & waterway pollution, one cleanup at a time.

Why United By Blue

United By Blue has been conducting cleanups for over 12 years in the US and across the globe. We have developed expertise in coordinating and executing impactful cleanup projects from in-water, islands, coastlines, rivers, and in-ocean, all within the lens of a for-profit business model. Our specialty is intercepting marine debris (trash in water) at key inflection points before it enters the open ocean where it is harder to capture, breaks down into microplastics faster, and becomes a greater threat to wildlife.
