A moment to look back – and an invitation to read the full stories.
We keep saying it has been a busy time. But busy is the wrong word. It has been a full one – full of things that actually matter, things we have been building towards for a long time, and things that surprised even us.
Rather than summarise everything into a single post that does none of it justice, we have written it all out properly. Four stories, four different corners of what we did this last spring. Here they are.
Two tonnes. Eight locations. 183 people.
Between April and May, we ran our Spring Beach Clean-Up Campaign across Ibiza – and the numbers that came back from the sorting hub were unlike anything we had seen before. 2.568 kilograms of waste removed from the coastline, the seabed, and the places nobody usually looks. There were divers, there were kayaks and there were decades old sunscreen bottles buried at Platja des Cavallet that have been waiting there longer than some of our volunteers have been alive.
The full story is a long read, and it deserves to be read properly: look out for it in the July edition of Ibiza Live Report Magazine, in print. We’ll share the article here on our website soon after – for now, here’s a glimpse of the campaign in motion.
The island saw us.
In May, Creatives for the Planet received the Ibiza Award at the Ray of Light Awards 2026 – given by nomination only, to initiatives born on the island that model something worth paying attention to. The gala took place at the Baluarte de Santa Lucía in Dalt Vila. We screened our new promotional video on a big screen for the first time. Jorge spoke about hope. Harmony spoke about experience as the only real teacher. And Sophia ended, as we always do, with the words that started everything: start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.
What actually happens to your kitchen scraps.
Most people know about plastic waste,almost nobody talks about organic waste,which makes up 40% of our trash, and which, when separated correctly, becomes compost and clean energy with zero toxic residue. We launched “L’orgànic, el residu més net”, organic the cleanest waste, a campaign with the support of the Consell Insular d’Eivissa to explain how important it is to use the brown container. it. We filmed a documentary inside Ca Na Putxa, and delivered posters and triptychs to schools, businesses, and communities across the island.
Kio is now on the table. Literally.
The third Kio book – an eco colouring adventure for ages 3 and up, in four languages – is now available at Tanit Beach, Casa Munich, Cas Costas, Atzaró, Atzaró Beach, Aubergine, Hostal Salinas, and 7Pines Hotel and Resorts. Every book purchased at a venue funds a copy for a local school. A child on holiday colours a seahorse, and somewhere on the island, another child gets the same book for free. That thread matters to us.
Thank you for being part of it – as a volunteer, a donor, a reader, or simply someone who cares about this island. There is more coming.
