About

Planet Wild is a global community of people that deeply care about the planet. We're on a mission to bring back endangered species, clean up our waterways from plastic and to rewild entire forests to give them back to nature. How it works: 1. On a monthly basis, our team selects impactful environmental projects; 2. The contributions from our global community are used to fund these projects; 3. Community members get video reports from our environmental missions, seeing the impact that they are unleashing with their contributions; 4. Step by step, our global community restores nature, increases biodiversity, unleashing a much needed systematic change. Become a member and help restore the planet, one mission at a time: https://planetwild.com/membership To ensure that our YouTube community remains a safe and respectful space for all, we've put together a set of guidelines that we ask everybody to follow: https://planetwild.com/guidelines

Click here: https://planetwild.com/businesses Every year, 570,000 tons of plastic end up in the Mediterranean Sea. That’s as much as 625 garbage trucks being dumped into the sea per day. But what if there was a way to stop the plastic before it ever reaches the sea? In the Kukës region of Albania, rivers from three countries come together, along with all their trash. With no proper waste management in place, tons of plastic collect behind a local dam and eventually washes downstream. The result? A floating wall of trash on its way to the sea. That’s why, in our 27th mission, we partnered with a team that has an ambitious plan to stop the plastic and keep it out of the sea for good.
