Plogging is a visible movement that connects individuals and communities, encouraging its participants to collect litter while raising awareness about the importance of environmental protection.

Forget about expensive sports equipment for a moment and exchange them for gloves and garbage bags, because we invite you, your spouse, children and friends, your coworkers, relatives, relatives of relatives, pets, etc.

– in other words, everyone to join us in this trendy, environmentally friendly hobby.

Whenever, wherever! - Let's clean up the planet one piece of trash at a time!

Plogging is suitable for anyone who moves anywhere, however they want.

Below you will find international example sports for plogging.

1. Walking – In the Heart of Europe

Plogging Week took over the streets and beaches of European cities! In Bratislava, Yerevan and Constanta, participants took to the streets, walking and running, collecting litter and creating a common good. Supported by the European Commission, this event proved that small steps can lead to big things.

2. Running – The Champions’ Championship in Italy

The 2024 World Plogging Championship brought the streets of Bergamo and Gandino to life! Over 80 runners from 13 countries worked together to collect a whopping 1,289 kg of litter – showing the world that sustainability is the new king of the racing field.

3. Cycling – Across Italy for Nature

In the Keep Clean and Ride event, environmental activist Roberto Cavallo cycled 1,000 km across Italy, picking up litter along the way and igniting a spark of environmental protection in the hearts of every passerby.

4. Paddling – Bringing Rivers and Beaches to New Glory

The River Cleanup - Plogging Tour in Lithuania took participants out on the water – paddling, collecting trash, and respecting the environment. We combined the power of water and the energy of community, creating an experience that will be remembered.

5. Rowing – on the world’s waters

World Cleanup Day brings together thousands of people from different countries – including water lovers. By rowing and moving, they create a wave that carries away trash and replaces it with cleaner waters.

Frontline Plogging

How to get involved?

Become a plogger by putting on gloves, grabbing trash bags in your pockets, and looking for trash around you and along your route, which you pick up in your trash bag. When the bag is full, you put it in a general trash can or sort it properly, if possible.

Read the instructions here:

Nothing ignites a sense of community like a shared goal for a cleaner world. The power of plogging lies in its diversity and community.
