Depeche Mode x Hublot x Conservation Collective
Together, Hublot and Depeche Mode are supporting and raising funds for Conservation Collective to tackle global plastic pollution at the grassroots.
The funding is being channelled to member Foundations across the CC network to tackle plastic pollution through local community-led initiatives, educational activities and awareness campaigns. Since June 2023, we’ve launched 14 projects across 10 different countries via three approach categories: Plastic-Free, Waste Management and Clean Ups.
The final 5 projects of Round 4 are yet to come later this year. Stay tuned to find out more about our partnership: empowering the communities working towards a cleaner future.
Why focus on plastic?
Because plastic pollution is one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues. From production to disposal, plastics unleash widespread havoc on human, plant and animal health. In the Mediterranean alone 33,800 plastic bottles enter the sea every minute. Plastic waste enters our ecosystems and clogs land, air, and waterways.
It has even entered human body systems. In recent scientific trials, microplastics were even detected in 77% of tests on human bloodstreams.
Plastic is a global problem and every country must be part of the solution: from grassroots to government action. By coming together to tackle plastic pollution, we are on a mission to show that change is possible with collective action.
