Millions of tonnes of plastic pollute our oceans annually. Despite significant investment and innovation, current clean-up efforts tackle less than 0.5% of this problem.
We need innovation that addresses the root causes, not just the symptoms. Our $2M Innovation Prize highlights possibilities to radically rethink how we make, use, and reuse plastic packaging. Discover more at the New Plastics Economy.

Ellen MacArthur and Stella McCartney co-hosted the launch of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s report, "A new textiles economy: Redesigning fashion's future." The report urges the fashion industry to adopt a new vision and foster cross-industry collaborations to achieve it.
The current "take-make-dispose" model causes significant environmental damage and economic loss. Every second, a garbage truck of textiles is landfilled or burned, resulting in an estimated USD 500 billion loss annually. By 2050, the industry could consume a quarter of the world's carbon budget. Additionally, it pollutes oceans with half a million tonnes of microfibres yearly, impacting food chains.
Relive the most impactful moments from the 2017 Summit.

The current economic system, driven by growth and profit, depletes resources and exacerbates inequality. Sustainable Human proposes a new path: a voluntary global gift economy designed to foster abundance for all by transcending scarcity economics.
This initiative invites individuals to share their unique gifts and skills, collaborating on projects to create goods and services given freely. Powered by Hylo, the Sustainable Human Gift Economy Network aims to build a bottom-up, participatory system, reducing reliance on the traditional industrial economy.

Environmental and economic problems like low wages and unemployment are often blamed on a hard-to-regulate U.S. economy. However, this system is intentionally rigged for the wealthy. Laws and policies overwhelmingly favor them, allowing control of vast resources and lavish living, while most Americans struggle paycheck to paycheck.
Despite ample resources, our economic system is designed for the wealthy, who manipulate it via political influence. It could easily be regulated to ensure decent jobs, healthcare, and homes for all. Yet, we largely complain without taking action.
Consumers bear responsibility for the entire product lifecycle, from resource extraction and manufacturing to eventual disposal. Despite holding admirable sustainability values, our purchasing behaviors often fail to align, impeding progress in environmental, social, and economic sustainability. Individual actions form the foundation for meaningful change.
