From Pollution to Purpose
Every year, millions of pounds of plastic flood our oceans — much of it from rivers in regions with few resources to stop it.
1. Community Collection
We support collection hubs in coastal communities where people exchange plastic waste for food, clean water, or fair pay, turning pollution into purpose.
2. Local Cleanups
Our team and local partners recover ocean-bound plastic from neighborhoods, rivers, mangroves, and shorelines, stopping it before it reaches the ocean.
3. Verified Recycling
We track the plastic (with BanQu™) recording quantities and collection locations and ensure that what we collect gets recycled.

Guatemala’s Plastic Hotspot
The Maria Linda is the most polluting river on the west coast of the American continent. Over 3.2 million pounds of plastic enter the ocean every year from the Maria Linda and the nearby Achiguate river. Tidey Ocean works in the area to change this story.
But we can’t do this alone…
Every $10 recovers 10 lb of ocean-bound plastic
