ecoSPIRITS Ocean Program

One kilogram of ocean waste is collected for each Bermuda Gin Co White Roof Gin & Tonic cocktail or Goslings Rum Dark & Stormy cocktail you order at the Hamilton Princess Hotel & Beach Club, through the ecoSPIRITS closed loop network. Waste recovery is run by local organisations in developing markets to create valuable employment.


Powered by Green Steps Group’s proprietary “proof of impact” technology platform. Waste recovery efforts are verified, monitored, and reported through an industry-leading digital trail.

Where?

Our East Africa Site

The eS Oceans Program’s first local operations have been established in Zanzibar, an island archipelago off the coast of Tanzania in East Africa. Bermuda is the first island nation to participate in the ecoSPIRITS Ocean Program


The cleanup takes place in Bwawani Beach and on the waterfront of the ruins of Maruhubi Palace, which are located a few kilometres north of Zanzibar town.


Working with local village cooperatives, the eS Oceans Program offers meaningful employment opportunities to residents of low income areas, creating social upliftment and environment regeneration. Through regular cleanup initiatives, the local community benefit from consistent remuneration and training on conservatorship of natural resources.

About ecoSPIRITS Ocean Program

The ecoSPIRITS Oceans Program complements the ecoSPIRITS Forest Program for island nations that are most at risk from rising sea levels due to climate change. Highlighted by the striking blue Ocean Conservation Edition ecoTOTE, each order of an ecoTOTE by venue partners in participating islands nations funds the removal of one kilogram of single use plastic, glass and other man-made wastes from endangered, coral reefs and waters. Using Green Steps Group’s proprietary “proof of impact” technology platform, cleanup operations are verified, monitored and reported through an industry-leading digital record. Ocean waste recovery benefits the venue partners, but is jointly funded by ecoSPIRITS and our Climate Partner brands and distributors.
