E.P.I.C. | Plastic Pollution Emergency Response™
The EPIC Program incorporates a four pillar hands-on approach to combat and transform ocean plastic:
EDUCATION, POLICY, INFRASTRUCTURE & CLEANUP.
Our EPIC Mission is to End Ocean Plastic Pollution!
As a Canadian-based, international non-profit organization, founded in 2013, we are dedicated to ending ocean plastic pollution around the world. Our mission is to develop and implement international response programs that combat this critical challenge. We combine innovative technologies, education, and skills training to transform plastic pollution into economic value. Additionally, we collaborate closely with local communities, tailoring circular economy tools to prevent further plastic pollution and protect their unique environments.
Our vision is a world where oceans thrive, free from the devastating impacts of plastic pollution. We envision a planet working together to support the plastic circular economy where everyone, and everything, benefits. We believe in the power of collective action, empowering communities and individuals to be stewards of their marine environments while supporting and developing a sense of responsibility for leaving future generations a legacy of healthy, thriving ocean ecosystems and a plastic pollution free world.
Here at Ocean Legacy Foundation we are a diverse team, driven by a deep responsibility to protect our oceans for present and future generations. Our integrated approach, called EPIC, focuses on Education & Research, Policy & Advocacy, Infrastructure Development, and Cleanup & Restoration. Through EPIC, we aim to restore critical ecosystems, improve both human and wildlife health, and establish sustainable infrastructure and policies to prevent oceanic plastic pollution at its source.
Ocean Legacy now offers affordable plastic melt flow and moisture testing at our facility. These services have been priced to support the production needs of local recyclers, startups and amateur material developers.
