eXXpedition (I-UK) - i-eXXpedition iqhuba iihambo zolwandle zabasetyhini ezilungiselelwe ukufundisa abathathi-nxaxheba malunga neeplastiki kunye neekhemikhali ezinetyhefu elwandle. Esi sibonelelo siya kuxhasa i-eXXpedition esandul 'i-Round-The-World 2019-2021, eya kubamba abafazi abangaphezu kwama-300 kwimilenze yohambo lwe-30, betyelela ezine kwii-gyres zolwandle ezintlanu. Ukongeza, umseki we-eXXpedition u-Emily Penn uza kuqhuba iindibano zocweyo ezintlanu kulo nyaka ekuhambeni ngeenqanawa kunye noluntu oluselunxwemeni malunga nendlela yokujongana nongcoliseko lolwandle besebenzisa inethiwekhi yabo, amaqela kunye noluntu.

Final Straw Solent (UK) - I-Final Straw Solent iye yakhawuleza amandla okwandisa ulwazi ngongcoliseko lweplastiki kunye nokuphelisa iiplastiki ezisetyenziselwa enye indawo kuluntu lwasekuhlaleni ngokucoca iilwandle kunye namaphulo aphantsi. Esi sibonelelo siya kujolisa ekuveliseni imfuno yabathengi yotshintsho phakathi kwamashishini, ishishini, izikolo, kunye nokuxhobisa amashishini ukuba asuke kwiiplastiki ezisetyenziswa kanye kwaye afake umgquba.

Hudson River Community Sailing (US) - Esi sibonelelo sisungula i-Sail Academy yesibini yabafundi besikolo esiphakathi eNorthern Manhattan, NYC, ukwakha inkqubo yophuhliso lolutsha oluyimpumelelo lwe-Hudson River Community Sailing olugxile kwimfundo yokusingqongileyo kunye nekharityhulam ye-STEM yabafundi abavela kwiindawo ezingagcinwanga kwi-Lower Manhattan.
