FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

National Plastic Pollution Education Awareness Campaign in Maryland Postponed

July 23, 2026 – Zero Plastic Liberia announce the postponement of The National Plastic Pollution Education Awareness Campaign originally scheduled to take place in Maryland from July 24 to 26, 2026.

The decision was made due to internal issues beyond our control that require additional time to resolve. We understand the importance of this campaign in raising public awareness about plastic pollution and its impact on Maryland’s communities, waterways, and environment.

"We remain fully committed to delivering a meaningful and impactful campaign" said Amb Simon Morris, Director of Programs & operations. “While we are disappointed to delay, this pause will allow us to ensure the event meets the standards our partners and the public expect. We appreciate the understanding of our volunteers, sponsors, and community members.”

A new date for the campaign will be announced in the coming days. All participants and partners will be notified directly once the updated schedule is confirmed.

We thank everyone who has supported this initiative and reaffirm our dedication to reducing plastic pollution and promoting sustainable practices across Maryland.

Today, Palm Bush Beach sparkled, not by accident, but by action.

This World Ocean Day, Zero Plastic Liberia stood shoulder to shoulder with the Palm Bush community along the RIA Highway. We came together not just to celebrate our ocean, but to defend it.

We started with knowledge, an education session on why ocean protection matters for our lives, our families, and our future. Then, we turned that knowledge into power. We cleaned. We restored. We showed what collective love for our blue planet looks like.

To every member who showed up with energy and purpose, thank you. To the Palm Bush community , you are the heart of this movement. And to the Town Chief, your presence and leadership spoke volumes. We are stronger because you stood with us.

This is what change looks like. Not someday. Today. On the sand. Under the sun. Together.

The ocean gives us life. Today, we gave back.
Happy World Ocean Day!!!!!

World Environment Day 2026

On June 5, 2026, Zero Plastic Liberia's Maryland Chapter proudly joined the Environmental Protection Agency - EPA and other stakeholders in observance of World Environment Day, demonstrating our collective commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.

The celebration brought together environmental advocates, government representatives, community leaders, and citizens to reflect on the urgent need for environmental stewardship and collective action against pollution.

Breaking News: We are pleased to share that Zero Plastic Liberia has received official accreditation to the upcoming UN Water Conference in the United Arab Emirates.

We are grateful to be one of only two organizations in Liberia granted this accreditation. This recognition allows us to represent Liberia’s voice on plastic pollution and ocean protection at a global forum where governments, civil society, and experts shape commitments for our oceans and water resources.

This accreditation strengthens our ability to share lessons from our work in schools and communities across Liberia. It gives us a platform to highlight how local action on plastic waste connects to broader water health, and to learn from solutions being implemented worldwide. The experience will directly inform our National Plastic Pollution Education Campaign and our partnerships on the ground.

Having Liberian civil society at the table ensures that our country’s challenges and innovations are part of the global conversation. Plastic pollution in our water, our rivers and coastal areas does not stop at our borders. By participating, Liberia contributes to regional and international cooperation on marine litter, fisheries, coastal resilience, and safe drinking water. It also signals that community-driven efforts here are being recognized internationally.

We thank the organizers for this opportunity and our partners, volunteers, and communities whose work made this possible. We look forward to carrying Liberia’s story to the UAE and bringing new knowledge back home.

Today, Zero Plastic Liberia, in partnership with Let’s Do It Liberia, successfully hosted our World Environment Day Workshop under the theme “Be Inspired by Nature, for Climate, for Our Future.”

Held at the Renault Conference Room, Capital Bypass, Monrovia, the workshop brought together ZPL leaders, and partner committed to tackling plastic pollution in Liberia.

Participants exchanged local strategies for waste reduction, community cleanups, and alternatives to single-use plastics. The joint commitment from Zero Plastic Liberia and Let’s Do It Liberia sets a foundation for coordinated campaigns across counties.

We heard directly from young leaders who are already driving change in their neighborhoods. Their ideas will shape Phase Two of our National Plastic Pollution Education Campaign. Attendees left with clear next steps, from school outreach programs to district-level cleanup drives starting this month in Montserrado County.

Nature inspires us, but it’s our collective action that protects it. Today proved that when Liberians come together for climate and for our future, real change is possible.

Thank you to our partner, speaker, and participant who made today impactful. This is just the beginning.

On Monday, Zero Plastic Liberia brought the National Plastic Pollution Education Campaign to Gbarnga, B**g County.

This marks the second county to benefit from the campaign as we expand efforts to equip students, teachers, and community members with the knowledge needed to address plastic pollution at the source.

During the outreach in Gbarnga, our team engaged schools in discussions about how plastic waste affects drainage systems, water quality, public health, and local agriculture. The focus was on practical steps that can be taken daily to reduce waste and prevent environmental damage.

Why education awareness comes first:
You cannot solve a problem that people do not fully understand. When communities learn how plastic clogs drains and increases flood risk, or how it contaminates soil and water sources, they begin to connect waste to the health and safety of their own families.

Education awareness saves lives by preventing the conditions that lead to waterborne diseases, food insecurity, and property damage. It protects the environment by shifting behavior at the individual and community level before the damage becomes irreversible. Once people know better, they can act better.

The National Plastic Pollution Education Campaign will continue across additional counties in the coming weeks. We thank the schools, local leaders, and our county Coordinator in B**g County for the warm welcome and active participation.

This World Environment Day, we’re partnering with Let’s Do It Liberia to host a workshop on June 5 at the Renault Conference Room, Capital Bypass, Monrovia.

It’s a small, invite-only gathering with partners and members working on real solutions to plastic waste and environmental challenges here in Liberia.

From our beaches to our neighborhoods, plastic pollution is showing up everywhere. It’s affecting the water we drink, the food we eat, and the livelihoods of families who depend on fishing, farming, and tourism.

World Environment Day is our reminder that change starts locally. When we clean up our communities and rethink how we handle waste, we’re protecting health, jobs, and the Liberia we want to pass on.

On Monday, our Executive Director was in Lofa County to sit down with the Zero Plastic Liberia Lofa Chapter team.

It was a chance to step outside the office and hear directly from the people doing the work on the ground. We talked about what’s really happening in Voinjama and the surrounding towns—where plastic is piling up, how it’s affecting water sources and farms, and what’s getting in the way of cleaner communities.

The conversation was honest, and it was useful.
Meeting face to face reminded us why local chapters matter. The Lofa team knows the context, the people, and the challenges better than anyone. That meant we could align on priorities that actually fit Lofa, not just what looks good on paper.

Ideas the team brought forward:

Take school education programs to more districts.

Set up small community groups and Eco-Clubs.

Work with local leaders to include environmental topics in regular community meetings.

These aren’t big, complicated plans. They’re practical steps that can start now and grow with the right support.

We’re grateful to the Lofa Chapter for the time, the honesty, and the ideas. This is how change actually happens—when national goals meet local knowledge and people are ready to act.
