In 2023, the MetLife x RIPL bottle funded 4300 employment days for RIPL's team of plastic collectors in Bali and the Solomon Islands, helping to lift them and their families out of poverty. During that time, they prevented 103,200 pounds of plastic from reaching the ocean by cleaning rivers, beaches and local villages. That's the equivalent of 4.3 million plastic bottles.

In 2024, the MetLife x RIPL tech bag funded the purchase and protection of 4.3 million sq ft of the Amazon Rainforest, saving approximately 20,700 fully grown trees from deforestation. Those trees will absorb an estimated 990,000 pounds of CO2 every year, forever. The land was handed over to a local community for protection and added to a nature reserve for endangered species. This empowers indigenous people to protect their native forest while giving animals on the verge of extinction room to roam.

This year, the MetLife x RIPL Travel Laptop Sleeve is continuing MetLife's legacy of holiday giving by funding a lifetime of clean water for 2150 people in communities in East and Southern Africa. This life-changing resource eliminates long collection journeys, prevents waterborne illness, improves overall health and hygiene, and allows children to focus on their education.
