Sungai Watch, a Balinese environmental organization, actively collects trash from rivers for sorting and recycling. Throughout 2023, they collected 537,189 samples of trash from various rivers in East Java and Bali.

Sungai Watch found that several brands were predominantly represented in the collected samples.

Danone brand waste was the most abundant, with a volume of 39,118 samples.

Danone waste accounted for 13% of total plastic cup waste, 25% of total polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle waste, 10% of total sachet plastic waste, and 3% of total hard plastic waste collected.

Other brands with the highest volume of waste found were Wings, Indofood, Ultra Jaya Milk, Orang Tua Group, Unilever, Mayora, Nestle, Coca-Cola, and Sinar Sosro.

"We clean rivers every day and we realize that plastic pollution is not only the result of products released by these companies; the government and consumers also share responsibility," said the Sungai Watch team in a post on their Instagram account on Tuesday (February 13, 2024).

"However, these companies need to take responsibility for better packaging of their products and for collecting their packaging waste scattered in the environment," they added.
