GO PLASTIC NEUTRAL WITH WPR
Working together to reduce our impact on the planet.
OUR PLASTIC NEUTRAL PROMISE
REMOVING AS MUCH PLASTIC FROM NATURE AS USED IN OUR WORKPLACE
HOW IT WORKS
-
CALCULATE
The first step in our journey was to understand where we were in order to inform future action. We established our current plastic footprint as an organisation and committed to removing as much environment-bound plastic waste as we use.
-
FINANCE
We fund the elimination of as much plastic waste from nature as we produce through our collaboration with a vetted rePurpose Impact Project that empowers waste workers on the frontline to tackle plastic waste in local communities.
-
REDUCE
Going Plastic Neutral is a continuous commitment, and that’s why we are working with rePurpose Global to develop a future roadmap to reduce the use of plastic in our workplace — and build a more circular business and delivery model.
“Within our 30@30 initiative’s sustainability pledges, working with rePurpose Global is an important part of the puzzle, allowing us to invest in innovative projects removing plastic from nature.”
— Jane Ainsworth, Managing Director, WPR
A TRAILBLAZING AGENCY COMMITTED TO A SUSTAINABLE & REGENERATIVE FUTURE.
SUPERCHARGING SYSTEMIC IMPACT
First, we work with vetted and experienced circular economy and waste management ventures. Next, we fund programs that enable these ventures to scale up plastic waste avoidance, removal, recovery, and recycling efforts. Finally, through thorough due diligence, we ensure adherence to global environmental and labour standards.
It takes an army to fight the ongoing plastic waste crisis, and with rePurpose Global, we are able to create tangible environmental and socio-economic impact. We’re not only helping remove plastic waste from the environment, but we’re also enabling steady livelihoods for forgotten waste workers across the globe.
