Unleash the power of a global community that rewards plastic reductions to tackle plastic pollution
UPFC is a community validated certification to verify the disposable plastic reductions made by companies in a traceable way.
THE PROBLEM / WHY
Each person in the world consumes 45kgs of plastic per year on average. 42% is packaging.
Geyer et al, 2017
Of all the plastic ever produced, only 9% was recycled.
Geyer et al, 2017 (until 2015)
11 million tonnes of plastic end up in the ocean each year.
— Jambeck et al. 2015
We need tools to give value to plastic reductions and align incentives in the system towards an unplastified world. 🌊
