Since 2017, 63 countries - both coastal and landlocked - have joined the Clean Seas Campaign with ambitious pledges and important commitments to prevent marine litter and plastic pollution - explore the map below to learn more.

Countries have pledged to reduce or eradicate single-use plastics from their societies through stronger legislation and regulation; others have committed to invest more in national recycling facilities; while some signatories have promoted action plans to prevent harm to the coastal and marine environment. So far, our signatories represent 60% of the world’s coastlines, however we need to engage more governments to protect our waters, ecosystems and wildlife from marine litter and plastic pollution.
