THE 5%
About 400 million people — a proposed social tipping point. We're not there yet, and every person counts.
Humans, not “impact”
This isn't an organisation. It's millions of people.
“We started with seven people. Now 40,000 people participate.”
Daniel, Mozambique
“Our whole school joined. The river looks different now.”
Mei, Taiwan
“This is our coast. We clean it together every September.”
Amina, Kenya
