Value proposition

A global network advancing grassroots, zero waste solutions to pollution and environmental injustice.

GAIA's Mission:

GAIA is a worldwide alliance of grassroots organizations, non-governmental organizations, and individuals who recognize that our planet's finite resources, fragile biosphere and the health of people and other living beings are endangered by polluting and inefficient production practices and health-threatening disposal methods.

We envision a just, zero waste world built on respect for ecological limits and community rights, where people are free from the burden of toxic pollution, and resources are sustainably conserved, not burned or dumped.

zero waste, alternatives to waste incineration and landfilling, recycling and livelihoods, plastic pollution, zero waste cities, grassroots, climate change, and movement building
