Description:
The Mission 100 aims to remove 100 tonnes of waste from the world's rivers and oceans to reduce the level of plastic, waste and toxic substances. This initiative also aims to mobilize and raise awareness among citizens, businesses and politicians worldwide to take concrete action to save the oceans. Through this mission, we want to highlight and promote different products and habits in order to offer alternatives to the use of plastic, particularly single-use products. The 100 tonnes Mission is currently working on the organization of a first international cleaning mission.
