Social Project

EndPlasticSoup

“Think global, start local, and take action. Join Us!”

We’ll start with a mission talk providing insights into EndPlasticSoup’s approach, impact, and ambition. After the talk, we’ll roll up our sleeves and head into the city. With a clean-up effort, we’ll leave Utrecht cleaner than we found it—not just by picking up waste, but by showing how small actions and collaboration can create big impact.
