Plastic pollution is a significant challenge in the Philippines, with local authorities and organizations actively addressing the issue. The Ocean Cleanup is collaborating with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and local partners to combat plastic pollution in the Manila Bay Region through its 30 Cities Program.

The deployment of Interceptor 028 in the Meycauayan River marks the beginning of operations in Manila, with plans for additional deployments. Collaboration is essential in tackling the plastic crisis, and The Ocean Cleanup is committed to supporting ongoing initiatives in the city. Together, we can make a difference in the fight against plastic pollution.

Interceptor 028 is now operational in the Philippines, targeting the 370 to 540 tonnes of plastic that flow through the Meycauayan River system into Manila Bay annually.

Collaborating with the City of Meycauayan and the City Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO), we aim to monitor and enhance the interceptor's performance. This deployment is the first of several planned for the Manila Bay region under our 30 Cities Program, which seeks to reduce plastic pollution from some of the world's most contaminated waterways.

Zaid Hassan, a strategist and writer with 25 years in systems change, critiques the field for its ineffective progress. In a conversation with Joe Iles, he discusses the disconnect between beautiful diagrams and real change, emphasizing that AI will soon take over many skills. His new book concludes with the phrase "it's not that hard," highlighting a simpler approach to systems change.

Hassan has advised global organizations like the World Bank and Oxfam and authored notable works including Social Labs Revolution (2014) and How To Evolve And How Not To (2026).

Women play a crucial role in agrifood systems, yet they face significant barriers and inequalities that limit their potential. Equal compensation and opportunities for women would benefit households and communities, enhancing economies, reducing hunger, and increasing dietary diversity.

The "Commit to Grow Equality" initiative focuses on empowering women in agrifood systems, urging partners to prioritize gender equality in their interventions. Learn more at FAO.

New materials can be costly, and added premiums from suppliers can inflate prices for brands. In this week's episode of the Circular Economy Show, Georgia Parker from Fashion for Good proposes that brands pay the premium directly to material producers, allowing the rest of the supply chain to function normally.

The scientific bottom trawl survey is a vital tool for assessing demersal species and studying seafloor life. By towing a weighted net across the seabed, scientists collect organisms to analyze their distribution, abundance, and biology. However, this method alone cannot capture the complexity of marine ecosystems, as some species are hard to sample, and sensitive habitats require non-invasive techniques.

Innovative tools like remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and environmental DNA (eDNA) are enhancing the ability of scientists and fisheries managers to monitor marine ecosystems. Stay connected with the GFCM on LinkedIn and X, and subscribe to the FAO on YouTube.

A circular economy for fashion requires garments designed for reuse. Elastane poses a significant challenge, and emerging alternatives vary in performance. Developers must clearly identify the specific problems they aim to solve and the types of garments their materials are best suited for.

In this episode of the Circular Economy Show, Georgia Parker from Fashion for Good and Lewis Shuler from Paradise Textiles discuss how ‘Stretching Circularity’ benchmarks these materials, helping brands and designers select the appropriate stretch for each garment.

Collection and recycling systems are vital for a circular economy, yet many regions lack the necessary infrastructure. The report ‘Closing the Loop: Transforming urban waste systems and protecting Brazil’s rivers’ reveals that Brazil could recover BRL 14 billion in recyclable value currently lost to landfills. Approximately 800,000 waste pickers play a crucial role in this system, often without recognition or fair compensation.

In partnership with the City of Recife, Brazil's Federal Government, and companies like Mars, Nestlé, @PepsiCo, and Unilever, we aim to invest R$300 million in enhancing collection and recycling systems. This initiative seeks to transform urban waste management and provide valuable lessons for policymakers across Brazil. Learn more about our efforts at Ellen MacArthur Foundation.
