Problem

Millions of people in coastal communities lack access to organized waste management, leading to significant plastic pollution in oceans and natural environments. This lack of infrastructure results in the disposal of waste in nature, contributing to environmental damage and health hazards.

Solution

CleanHub provides a waste collection and tracking system in coastal communities, connecting households to organized waste management and preventing plastic from entering the environment. The company establishes CleanHubs, which either builds its own or works with local operators, to collect waste directly from households, beaches, and rivers, creating safe and dignified jobs with fair pay. CleanHub uses real-time tracking and AI-driven verification to ensure transparency and accountability in the waste management process. Brands and individuals can fund this plastic recovery, enabling investment in local infrastructure and verified plastic collection.
