Sustainable Surf, a non-profit startup NGO, wants to help turning the surf industry into a 100% green and sustainable business. From surfboards to blocks of wax, wetsuits, leashes and surf wear, there are a lot of processes that should be changed. Sustainable Surf’s headquarters are located in the heart of Southern California, right in the center of a very important share of the global surf industry. Petroleum, polyurethane, polyester resin, polystyrene foam, PVC and many other substances are still being widely used to produce surf gear and equipment. Sustainable Surf, founded by Michael Stewart and Kevin Whilden, are working with the brands to change that, step by step. The startup has created an Advisory Board which works as a tool to reach goals. Jim Moriarty, CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, Dean LaTourette, Executive Director of Save the Waves, Scott Coleman, Partnership Developer at Google.org and several other members help the organization move forward.
