Strong together for the Weser!

Thank you for your valuable support this year! Let's continue to work together to keep our waters clean and healthy. The next date is September 14th, 2024!

Together for clean rivers

RhineCleanUp ensures that the garbage does not get out of hand on the rivers. We are committed to protecting the environment and keeping rivers and oceans clean. Be there and support us. Please motivate your friends, colleagues and neighbors too. We support you!

The Weser offers important habitats!

The Weser - with a length of 452 kilometers - has its source in the Weserbergland and flows into the North Sea. On its banks and in the water, it offers a nutrient-rich habitat for its large number of plant and animal species. The pollution of the Weser threatens its biodiversity. That is why the protection of nature is very important.

 

The Weser is also an important river for the economy, as it has been used as an important shipping canal for centuries.

 

Together with our partners and you, we want to clear the banks of the Weser of garbage. From the source to the mouth. In addition, our long-term goal is to raise awareness that rubbish should not be thrown away carelessly or, even better, avoided in the first place! Are you in?

Join a CleanUp

Individuals who want to join can find an existing group in their neighborhood on this website. All important information about the CleanUp can be found in the details of the respective CleanUp.

Organize a cleanup in your region

Anyone can start a group. Municipalities, municipal waste disposal companies, local groups of environmental organizations, sports clubs, social institutions, day care centers and schools, companies, but also neighborhood initiatives - they are all welcome.

 

Create your own CleanUp and invite your collaborators. Together you can make a difference!

Prime Partner

Deutsche Postcode Lotterie

Working together for a greener future: Deutsche Postcode Lottery is actively committed to our environment as a main partner.
 

The mission of the social lottery is to create a better world for us humans and to preserve our planet. The RhineCleanUp not only strengthens social togetherness, but also triggers a rethinking of environmental pollution and its associated consequences. After our employees have already actively supported the big "Rhine CleanUp" in 2018, 2019 and 2020, with the help of our participants we are again financially supporting the project from source to mouth this year. In addition to measures to promote the campaign, work equipment such as trash bags, high-visibility vests, gloves and grabs will be provided for the many thousands of helpers to clean up Germany's second-largest river and its tributaries. And the best thing about it is that anyone can join in and make their contribution to a clean environment.

By connecting people, businesses and governments, the non-profit creates involvement and commitment to work together for a clean environment.

IGSU

Newly formed in May 2007, the IGSU is an Interest Group for a Clean Environment in Switzerland. The initiative was taken by two private sector recycling organisations, the IGORA Cooperative for Aluminium Recycling and PRS PET-RECYCLING Switzerland. The two organisations have been working together against littering since 2004. Nonetheless, they sought to support activities against littering on a larger scale and have therefore founded the IGSU.
