FOR MY LIFE, FOR MY PLANET

How much AM I willing to give up without feeling that I Am losing something?

Our Vision

OUR MISSION

We want to inspire that everyone can make a contribution through their own actions, no matter how small. Every contribution has an impact.

Our Vision

We believe that we cannot survive in a world polluted by plastic.

Our Goal

We build a network to support projects, cities, people and other local entities to become more and more a Circular Economy.

Our Values

Are based on these principles:

Integrity

Transparency of global plastic waste cycles and what local waste management is actually about. #rethink design for a real #circulareconomy

Humbleness

Gratitude for what is really worse leaving for. The Environment does not depend on us. Humans depend on the environment. Raw material is the essence of our products. #lessismore

Accountability

Authenticity about our own contribution to plastic pollution. No pretending that everything is gonna be ok without changing anything. #bethechange

Project

Journey

milestones

We started a journey to look for sustainable solutions on a local and global scale.
We did clean-ups on the ground as well as underwater. We perceived a deep insight of what we are actually dealing with. High rising pollution levels in Europe, Africa and Asia.
We looked for recycled products in different industries.

NOT ONE DAY. DAY ONE.
We believe, that the change in this world is based on the change we make in ourselves. By the daily decisions of what we eat, drink, buy and how we behave.
What are the things, that you really need and how much of it? What is it, that you desire, but has no purpose, only the validation of the ego?

The tragedy of the commons refers to a situation in which individuals with access to a public resource—also called a common—act in their own interest and, in doing so, ultimately deplete the resource. 1833 by British writer William Forster Lloyd.

EGO desires for more which is based on validation and recognition, based on a deficiency. We need to give up our desire for more if we recognise that we already have everything we need.

Your everything is clean water, clean air, nutritious food, security, health and a place to live - most likely, your basic needs are covered!

Ask yourself: Where did our desires on Maslow‘s Pyramid has led us: Self-fulfilment needs. Into a world where a picture means more than being aware in a moment.

Plastic

1. The Material

A plastic material is a synthetic polymer made from petrochemical or biological raw materials. Plastics can be divided into three main categories:
POLYMER: Plastic is primarily made up of polymers composed of long chains of molecules, monomers. These polymers are made from various chemical compounds that are obtained either from fossil raw materials (such as petroleum, natural gas or coal) or from renewable raw materials (such as plants).

2. The Recycling Process

Various recycling methods help to reduce the environmental impact of plastic waste and use resources more efficiently. Each method has its specific advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of the appropriate process depends on the type of plastic and the technologies available.

3. The Problem

Plastic materials are used in a variety of applications including packaging, construction, automotive, electronics , healthcare, aviation and more due to their versatility, durability and cost-effective manufacturing. However, they have also caused environmental problems, particularly through the accumulation of plastic waste in the oceans and in landfills. There are therefore increasing efforts to develop bio-based and biodegradable plastics and to improve recycling processes.
Polymeres offer properties such as heat resistance, mechanical strength and chemical resistance that make them indispensable for specialized and demanding applications.
The global plastic waste situation: Plastic pollution is a global environmental problem caused by the massive accumulation of plastic waste and furthermore microplastics in nature, especially in the oceans. Plastic pollution threatens ecosystems, wildlife and ultimately human health.
Microplastics can enter the human body through food, water and air. The long-term health effects are not yet fully understood, but there is evidence of potential risks from chemical pollutants that adhere to microplastics.

Future

Acknowledgement : Luxury is not the more, it is the priviledge of choice.
How do we want to shape our future, the future of humanity and Life itself on this planet?
If Human is the next big thing, we need to ask ourselves in which world do we want to live in? Where do we find purpose?
A world of equality or division? Of destruction or balance? Of illusion on social media or reality?
