Radical Collaboration

powered by

Founded in 2015 by Adrian Grenier and Lucy Sumner, Lonely Whale has spearheaded impactful global movements to raise awareness and offer alternatives to problematic plastics, convened a consortium of multi-national brands to create the first global network of ocean-bound plastic supply chains, and supported the global youth movement with the tools and network needed to advance their efforts to secure a future with clean seas.

Our team works in partnership with our fiscal sponsor Re:wild, an organization established by a group of renowned conservation scientists and Leonardo DiCaprio to protect and restore the wild – the most effective solution to the interconnected climate, biodiversity and human health crises.
