Zume Inc. | 17,069 followers on LinkedIn. Zume is actively reducing the world’s plastic waste with economically viable substitutes for plastic packaging. | Everything that moves is in packaging, but the reality is, it’s one of the most damaging sectors to our environment with plastic pollution costing $13 billion in economic damage annually. Global research has shown the flow of plastic into the ocean each year could triple by 2040, and the UN predicts there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean by 2050. At Zume, we believe that a world without single-use plastics is both possible and inevitable.
