Sungai Watch - Update July 2023

The latest quarterly ‘catch’ at the river barrier in Bali we sponsor was 1,175kg of plastic, the largest daily catch being 63kg on 6 June.
Total to date (March 2022 - June 2023): 6,335kg

Update from the team in Bali

This quarter, we expanded our mission with the inauguration of two new village model stations in Beraban, Tabanan with Karmagawa, and in the north of Bali, near Singaraja with Marriott each targeting to intercept an additional 100,000 kilograms of plastic.

One key highlight was the transformation of a once-illegal landfill into a flourishing community garden. We marked this remarkable transition by planting 1,600 sunflowers on Earth Day, a vivid demonstration of regeneration and resilience.

Our cleanup efforts remained strong with 94 missions conducted this quarter. Looking forward, we are excited to expand our impact into East Java with more advocacy work and the introduction of a second village model this summer with Solgaard.

Thank you to everyone contributing to this incredible impact. Together, we continue to make strides towards a healthier, plastic-free planet.
