General information

We can organize cleanup events throughout France and Europe, thanks to our network of more than 100 Surfrider animators.

3 good reasons to organize a clean walk with Act!

1. To protect the environment directly on the ground, especially the Ocean.

2. To unite team spirit outside your premises by participating in a solidarity and friendly event.

3. To raise awareness about plastic pollution and get your staff involved in a participative science process.

Put on your gloves and sneakers, and off you go !

Example of a typical collection process:

2:00 pm: Surfrider presentation, safety instructions, and equipment distribution.

2:30 pm: clean walk.

4:00 pm: waste sorting and quantification.

4:30 pm: environmental awareness with quiz and discussions.

17h00: end of the operation.

Put on your gloves, sports clothes and participate in a practical action for the environment.

Several formats available :

  • Classic : a waste collection on foot, on the beach, near a river, a lake or in town.
  • Olympics : the clean walk will be enhanced by games and challenges for teams, whether sportspeople or not. Energize your seminar and make the winning teams win eco-responsible prizes!
  • Plogging : for your most athletic teams, the collection will take place in the form of a foot race while collecting waste along the route.
  • Family : to get the employees' relatives, spouses and children involved, especially during a weekend event. A playful awareness campaign for children will be planned.

Participants

There is no limit to the number of participants in our waste collections (except for the constraints imposed by the chosen location).

  • Rental of nautical equipment (canoes, kayaks, life jackets) and supervision by state-certified kayak instructors.

Plastic Origins option:

We offer the discovery of our application "Plastic Origins" that uses artificial intelligence to identify macro-plastic waste in rivers, and thus better understand the context of waste pollution (discover more on our brochure).

  • Up to 50 participants on the water, depending on the kayak providers.
  • Possibility to combine 1 group on foot and 1 group in kayak.
  • In the case of a family format, children are allowed from 7/8 years old.
