Waterbom Bali
Waterbom reduces plastic material that has the potential to leak into the landfill by implementing advanced waste sorting in a centralized waste sorting area located within the compound. Waterbom has also implemented a single-use plastic-free regulation on items sold in the park. Waterbom also regularly audits third parties who collect our waste to ensure their capability to recycle and ensure that most of the materials we send still have economic value.

Global Tourism Plastics Initiative
In the framework of the Global Tourism Plastics Initiative, Waterbom Bali commits to:
- Through the Seed of Thought, an environmental education program that Waterbom will initiate starting in 2022, Waterbom will encourage our participants to join the Global Tourism Plastic Initiative. Waterbom also hope this program can lead to positive behavioral changes to the environment in general and the plastic crisis in particular, to the tourism industry players around Bali.
- Starting from 2022 - 2025, Waterbom plan to run 48 awareness raising program with a potential of 750 participants from Tourism Industries and University Students alike through our Seed of Thought Educational Environment Program.
- Waterbom has made a memorandum in 2022 regarding waste management to partners operating in the Waterbom Bali area, in which our partners are obliged to sort out their waste. The company also provides them with daily audits and assistance every day to ensure there are good compliance in their waste management in which ultimately will reduce the amount of waste going to landfill and also increase their staff awareness.
- The company has and will continue to report on the results of our work on a quarterly basis. The company will do this via our social media (instagram, linkedin, facebook, etc). By the end of 2022, they put a very ambitious target, which is sending only 5% of our waste to the landfill through material management.
