Marine Plastic Management Program (MPMP)

Turn plastic waste into reputational capital for your marine business with our innovative marine plastic management initiative.

ABOUT THE MARINE PLASTIC MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

The Marine Plastic Management Program (MPMP) is an innovative initiative by Ocean Legacy that empowers businesses operating in the marine sector to take responsibility for the end-of-life management of their equipment and materials. Designed specifically for organizations involved in marine-based industries—such as fisheries, aquaculture, transportation, and coastal tourism—the program provides practical tools, training, and recognition to support responsible plastic stewardship, advance the circular economy, and build a more sustainable future across British Columbia and beyond.

Turn plastic waste into reputational capital. Join the MPMP to reduce risk, increase efficiency, and lead your industry in sustainability.
