Vietnam ranks fourth among the countries from which the most plastic waste enters the oceans. According to calculations, the Mekong River is one of the 20 most important sources of entry into the sea.

Together with partner organizations and local authorities, WWF launched a pilot project in Long An province in 2018 to stop the plastic flood.

**************************************

The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is one of the largest and most experienced conservation organizations in the world and active in more than 100 countries. Around five million supporters worldwide support him. WWF's global network maintains 90 offices in more than 40 countries. Around the world, employees are currently running 1300 biodiversity conservation projects.

The most important instruments of WWF conservation work are the designation of protected areas and the sustainable, ie nature-friendly use of our natural assets. In addition, the WWF is committed to reducing pollution and wasteful consumption at the expense of nature.

Worldwide, WWF Germany is involved in 21 international project regions for nature conservation. Priorities include the preservation of the Earth's last major forests - in the tropics and in temperate regions -, the fight against climate change, the use of living seas and the preservation of rivers and wetlands worldwide. WWF Germany also runs numerous projects and programs in Germany.

The WWF's goal is clear: if we succeed in sustainably preserving the greatest possible diversity of habitats, we can also save a large part of the world's animal and plant species - and at the same time preserve the network of life that also bears us humans.
