Who we are
And the good stuff we get up to
About City to Sea
We’re an environmental organisation, campaigning to stop plastic pollution at source. We work with communities, businesses, and everyday activists around the world to provide practical solutions to the plastic problem. We like to keep it simple and have fun on the way.
The problem might be complicated, but we don’t believe the solutions need to be.
We were founded in Bristol in 2015, by environmental campaigner Natalie Fee. Get the low down on all things City to Sea and find out how the plight of the albatross started the powerful movement we’re all proud to be part of today.

Our Values
Balanced
We’re a critical friend and trusted peer. In a world of fake-news and greenwashing, we take our time to find out the facts and evaluate our impact.
Positive
We praise progress and listen to all perspectives, whilst remaining authentic. We believe a tickle is better than a punch and keep our messaging upbeat and playful.
Creative
We keep our messaging simple when facing complex issues. We improvise, imagine and inspire, embracing diversity and seeking inclusion.
Earth-kind
We don’t just appreciate nature, we love it. Nature is our best buddy, our trusted advisor and our most important board member
Brave
We take risks with our content and embrace our mistakes. We dream big and make magic happen.
A rising emergen-sea
We've launched our climate and ecological emergency declaration and also shared our new clarity of purpose. We’re telling the world that if you care about plastics, you need to care about climate change.
