Welcome
plastic solution
An aggressive plan to concentrate global concern into coordinated action—at unprecedented speed and scale.
World Harmoni Corporation™ is a U.S. C-Corp structured for impact, not just growth. Our core mission is a scalable defense against global plastic leakage, starting with the greatest threat to life: micro and nano-plastics. Data support that billions of individuals are highly concerned and willing to help with the plastic crisis. But their potential impact is diluted by a large number of regional NGOs promoting multiple directives. We aim to unify this dispersed energy with an aggressive marketplace plan that translates global concern into coordinated action and quantifiable impact. Through global branding, we propose to inform and equip this global cohort with new directives, a new line of products, and a multilingual streaming docuseries about the big picture of plastic's impact on Earth's systems and how to fix it. Our research indicates we could accelerate reductions of environmental plastic leakage at unprecedented speed and scale.
How to prevent 8 billion point sources of plastic leakage.
Daily plastic emissions by nearly 8 billion people is wholly unaddressed and contributes to invisible threats from micro and nano plastic across ecosystems and human health. Without solutions, these consequences will intensify. Recognizing the limitations of all current viable interventions (Lau et al.; Borelle et al., 2020), scientists urged private sector action. We were already on it. After a decade of R&D, we present a viable, profitable solution.
We reframe plastic pollution as a human herd problem, driven by a widespread social norm of plastic release—a behavior distinct from blatant littering, which has been effectively reduced through anti-littering campaigns. This release norm spread like a contagion alongside the globalization of plastic products.
To change this release norm, we developed a proprietary marketplace approach to influence smarter plastic responsibility at the consumer level.
Understanding the need to strike a balance between a worldwide trend to live sustainably and consumer leanings to choose convenience over environment, our solutions are designed for fast and easy integration into lifestyles. Our research informed a global target audience, new product inventions, specially crafted messaging, and a method to reach them using today's advanced channels of communication and distribution. This could result in slowing the accumulation of plastic by imparting our plan at speed and scale.
To further accelerate the shift, we are developing a compelling streaming docuseries, written by our chief science officer, to influence safer behaviors when handling plastic.
Leveraging research and a broad distribution network, our global model could generate widespread behavioral shifts, significantly slowing 710 million metric tons of plastic that scientists forecast will accumulate between 2016 and 2040 if current plastic leakage trends continue (Lau et al., 2020).
Our solution takes a global cohort beyond 'awareness' media, toward actionable behaviors to disrupt consumer release of macro, micro, and nano plastics. While specific details are proprietary, our approach is novel to the plastic pollution discourse—it is not anti-littering, 'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle,' awareness media, and non-disruptive to industries. We leave those efforts to others."
In September 2024, we formed World Harmoni Corporation (WHC), a for-profit C Corp. Our financially self-sustaining business model allows free access to global markets via a non-disruptive, business-friendly approach.
To maximize our impact, we are building a world-class team envisioned to bring proven success in global brand development, marketing, robust end-to-end supply chain management (including engineering and manufacturing), monitoring development, and a high-performing sales engine.
Our plan targets the most efficient point in the product lifecycle to mitigate environmental leakage because once plastic is released, it becomes borderless, nearly impossible to clean up, injects particulates into the environment immediately, while macro will degrade into nano-particles over time, devastating all ecosystems and human health.
If our plan is adopted, we could slow future release of plastic by millions of metric tons per year, save trillions of dollars across global cleanup efforts, human health expenditures, ecosystem preservation, and industrial burdens, while concurrently accelerating the realization of a Circular Economy.
Project specifics are proprietary and will be shared with key stakeholders.
Why Private-Sector, For-Profit
Plastic pollution has a growing body of research documenting harms and its insidious reach into ecosystems. Reviewing viable scenarios to solve plastic pollution, even with aggressive measures such as circularity, scientists in two 2020 studies forecast annual plastic emissions will increase to 53 million MT by 2030 (Borelle et al., 2020) and 710 million MT of cumulative plastic will enter all ecosystems by 2040 (Lau et al., 2020); both studies call for an urgent response from the private sector to employ an economical solution.
The challenges faced by governments and non-profit organizations in addressing plastic pollution are multifaceted and complex, to include:
- Sovereign Constraints: Governments must stop at their borders--but when plastic escapes, it becomes borderless, redistributing into the commons by Earth's natural systems.
- Resource Constraints: Non-profits often operate with limited resources compared to for-profit entities. This can restrict their ability to invest in large-scale advertising and marketing campaigns.
Findings & Benefits
The Intersection Point: Our proposed paradigm offers a middle-ground solution that satisfies environmentalists and business by slowing plastic emissions using the flow of business. The strategy is designed to divert more uncontrolled waste into controlled waste systems, including micro and nano plastic, which could speed up fruition of the circularity framework.
Project benefits include:
- A synergistic plan that could disrupt land-based plastic tonnage flows into terrestrial, riverine, and ocean ecosystems, achieving the most significant reductions in High-Income and Upper-Middle-Income Countries within two to five years.
- A plan to achieve a critical mass of human participation that could cascade to a global scale.
- A private-sector, for-profit business model and marketing strategy to amplify price and scale efficiencies for fast deployment and financial sustainability.
- An effort that is not dependent on plastic value.
- Monitoring technology would be developed to measure regional and global campaign success in real-time data, and fill knowledge gaps by collecting elusive global terrestrial plastic pollution data.
- It scales with world population growth, corporate expansion into new international markets, and anticipated increases in virgin plastic production.
- It is apolitical and non-adversarial to business to avert delays from special interest groups.
- It could be a candidate for extended producer responsibility (EPR), which producers might welcome because we monetized a scaled solution.
- It reduces plastic pollution in the immediate future as permanent solutions come to fruition.
