In September 2026, 4ocean crews removed 8,108 pounds of plastic and trash during cleanup operations in Indonesia supported through Wave Browser’s partnership with 4ocean.
September’s result represents another step in Wave Browser’s commitment to supporting the removal of 300,000 pounds of plastic and trash from our ocean, rivers, and coastlines between May 2025 and May 2028.
Supporting Cleanup Efforts in Indonesia
Indonesia’s waterways and coastlines connect communities with important marine environments. Removing accumulated waste from these areas helps prevent plastic and trash from remaining in the water or moving farther through connected waterways.
During September, 4ocean teams carried out cleanup work in Indonesia and recovered a total of 8,108 pounds of waste. Trained crews collect, document, and manage the recovered materials as part of 4ocean’s cleanup operations.
September’s Impact by the Numbers
- Location: Indonesia
- Cleanup partner: 4ocean
- Plastic and trash removed: 8,108 pounds
These monthly updates give the Wave community a clearer view of the cleanup progress supported through Wave Browser’s environmental initiative, which has delivered 133,402 pounds of plastic and trash removal to date.
2026 Recovery by Location Type
As of September, 2026, the 2026 recovery total had reached 63,373 pounds across different aquatic environments:
| Recovery type | Amount recovered |
| Ocean | 4,859 lbs |
| River | 43,647 lbs |
| Coastline | 14,867 lbs |
| 2026 total | 63,373 lbs |
Ocean recovery refers to waste collected from open ocean waters. River recovery covers waste intercepted from river systems, while coastline recovery includes plastic and trash collected along coastal beaches.
These figures show how cleanup operations take place across different environments rather than in one type of location alone.
Following Wave Browser’s Cleanup Progress
Wave Browser works with 4ocean to support cleanup efforts in our oceans, rivers, and coastlines. The Impact Tracker shares information about the amount of waste removed, recovery categories, cleanup locations, and progress toward the broader commitment.
PlasticsToday highlighted how Wave Browser supports 4ocean’s professional cleanup operations, including the crews, boats, and equipment used to recover waste from waterways and coastlines. The publication also identified Indonesia as one of the regions where 4ocean crews operate throughout the year.
September’s reported total from Indonesia adds to the work already completed through this partnership. Each update reflects the efforts of 4ocean crews in the locations where recovery operations take place.
