👟 Beyond Plastic Ecochallenge 2025

Welcome, we’re so glad you’re here.

Beyond Plastic Ecochallenge is a one-month challenge that makes reducing plastic in our lives — and transforming the systems around us — fun, motivating, and impactful. This Ecochallenge invites you to create your own personal plan throughout July to help you limit plastic consumption and reduce plastic waste for the health of the planet and those around us.

This year, you’ll find actions across four categories — from learning and reflection to influencing others and advocating for systemic change. Whether you’re completely new to low-plastic living or a seasoned pro, you’ll find new and exciting ways to propel your sustainability journey forward. As you explore our new library of impactful actions and resources and chat with others cheering for you on the Feed, you’ll never be left wondering, “What can I do now?”

Beyond Plastic Ecochallenge is completely free and open to everyone to join. You belong here, and we are excited to support you in succeeding in your sustainability journey.

To get started, we encourage you to:

  • Mark any actions you already do as “I already do this”
  • Choose new or challenging actions that help you push your comfort zone
  • Check out the Feed often for support, ideas, and connection

When we step outside our comfort zone, we grow. And, we inspire others to grow with us. We hope you will use this platform and community of fellow participants across the globe as support in helping you reach your next level of sustainable living.

Let’s try new things, together, and create a ripple effect of lasting change.
