Plastic production and consumption are predicted to double over the next 10 years.
That means that if we don’t do something now, we could be facing 250 million tons of plastic in the ocean in less than 10 years. We can’t stand by and watch the impacts of this tidal wave of plastic heading our way—neither failure nor inaction is an option. So what are our options?
Glass is the sustainable and 100% recyclable alternative to plastic that will help us end the plastic epidemic in the United States.
Here are some of the benefits why reverting back to glass is the way towards sustainability.

The End of Waste Foundation is built on the vision of producing a circular economy within the recycling industry, eliminating plastic waste and fostering a revolutionary paradigm of shared responsibility.
Through our platform, we track quantities of glass from bin to bottle, ensuring efficiency and accountability. At each stage of recycling, we’re creating the opportunity to divert glass from landfills and give it new life.
Our system is powered by environmentally conscious businesses and consumers who contribute to the Glass Certificate Program which subsidizes the economic losses incurred by our waste and recycling partners.
Contributors (individuals and organizations alike) receive a certificate that validates the amount of glass saved from landfills and how much CO2 has been diverted from entering the atmosphere.
Select the plan you would like to contribute to and we will finalize your contribution.
On the checkout page, you can select whether you want to contribute monthly or annually.
A year’s worth of contributions equals getting 1 ton of glass recycled! That’s offsetting the CO2 emissions of charging over 44,000 smartphones!
"Our mission at Ripple Glass is to keep glass out of the landfill by making glass recycling work. We believe that glass is too good to waste and look forward to working with the End of Waste Foundation to fix the broken value chain of recycling.”
"Glass bottling is the missing piece to the equation of sustainable wine making. The revolutionary End of Waste platform and certification process creates a circular economy that ensures wine bottles are being recycled and avoiding landfills."
Our mission is to collectively contribute to the reversal of our waste crisis by increasing recycling and investing in a circular economy that engages the world in the shared responsibility of waste management.
We help businesses and consumers reach their goals and objective of sustainability by boosting recycling through technology.
