Every Order Now Cleans the Ocean and Plants a Tree!

We’ve always believed that fashion should do more than just make you look good. It should also do good. At El Felipe, sustainability has been at the core of our mission, and today, we’re taking it to the next level.

In case you missed it, we already plant a tree for every carbon-neutral order. But we asked ourselves. How can we do more? How can we make an even bigger impact on the planet?

The Answer: 1 Order = 5 Plastic Bottles Removed from the Ocean

Starting today, every purchase from El Felipe doesn’t just plant a tree. We are now also removing five plastic bottles from the ocean for every order. Yes, you read that right!

Through our partnership with Good API, which collaborates with Plastic Bank, your order directly contributes to cleaning up our oceans and protecting marine life.

 

The Plastic Crisis Is Worse Than You Think

Every year, 8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans. That’s the equivalent of dumping a garbage truck full of plastic into the ocean every single minute. The result? Devastated marine ecosystems, endangered wildlife, and a worsening climate crisis.

Plastic pollution doesn’t just harm marine animals, it affects humans, too. Microplastics have been found in the fish we eat, the water we drink, and even the air we breathe. It’s a crisis that needs urgent action.

 

Here’s How El Felipe Is Making a Difference

1 Tree Planted – Helps fight climate change, absorb CO2, and restore forests

5 Plastic Bottles Removed from the Ocean – Protects marine life and reduces ocean-bound plastic

Supports Local Communities – Collectors in vulnerable coastal areas earn a living by retrieving ocean-bound plastic

Builds a Sustainable Future – Prevents the need for new plastic production by promoting a circular economy

Aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

El Felipe’s sustainability initiative actively supports the following UN SDGs:

SDG 12 - Responsible Consumption and Production - By integrating recycled plastics into the supply chain, we promote sustainable production and reduce plastic waste

SDG 14 - Life Below Water  - Preventing plastic from entering our oceans protects marine biodiversity, ecosystems, and endangered species

SDG 13 - Climate Action - Planting trees helps absorb CO2, combat climate change, and restore critical ecosystems

SDG 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth - Our initiative provides income opportunities for plastic collectors in coastal communities, fostering sustainable livelihoods

 

How Does This Work?

1. You place an order with El Felipe, and a portion of the sales will automatically be donated to our partner organizations.

2. Through Good API’s partnership with Plastic Bank, five plastic bottles are collected and prevented from entering the ocean.

3. A tree is also planted to offset carbon emissions.

4. You enjoy your premium, eco-friendly purchase knowing that you’re making an impact!
