Our impact


GreenKayak works to reduce the amount of garbage floating in our coastal waters. The idea is simple – get a free GreenKayak trip in return for collecting trash & sharing this on social media. GreenKayak also shares knowledge, and helps people of all ages get out on our beautiful oceans and take action.

"Waste in nature is our shared responsibility."

We are happy about the partnership with GreenKayak. GreenKayak combines action and fun with an important issue – environmental protection – and makes a visible contribution to making Hamburg cleaner.
I am absolutely into GreenKayak who solves problems with plastic very concretely by borrowing kayaks for free to collect waste while paddling. I tried it myself and can highly recommend taking a tour. We mention GreenKayak as a good example of a local initiative in the EEA’s new report on plastics.


I have seen cod caught in the Oresund, which has had a whole plastic cup in its stomach …We see that the GreenKayak returns with trash from the canals every single day.
