    @FrankieTheOne, Yes! And the good news for the Planet and for all of us is that, if 8 BILLION people each make even a small positive difference each day (e.g., not wasting one grain of rice/food per meal three times a day = tons of food-waste avoided, and more food to feed the hungry in the world), all of those "small differences" add to HUGE BENEFITS. 1% improvement per day = nearly 400% improvement in just a year.

    Felix F, that is more than the garbage that I have in a year. E.g., I avoid buying any beverages: boil water at home, fill a flask, and always in reusable mug/cup. Hence, no water-bottles, no cartons of juice, or cans of anything to throw away after a single use. All the water that I use from the tap in a month is about U.S.$4 to $5. Many people spend more on one drink than what I use for the whole month, including water for cooking, water for showers, and water for laundry.

So not only are you getting a recycled pair of shoes but also a recycled canvas bag that spreads the word about the recycled shoes. Really good design all around there.

Personally I loved the high carbon tiles, they are very elegant and sharp in design. Whilst retaining carbon into something that cannot escape into the atmosphere. The cigarettes butts idea was really good that it was reforming something that was of no use and would have taken many years to decompose of. I was impressed by the millennial young people that are putting their mind’s on the way to help reduce the waste into the earth. Hopefully 🙏 we can reduce the impact on our Mother Earth,so that our Childrens future may have something to live for. May god bless you all….

    The main issue is that the pit's water level is constantly rising, so even if they manage to somehow fill it up, that will only be a temporary solution, and eventually it will only lead to more serious challenges. So for now, they are only trying to solve the immediate threats. 🙂

There is all this printed jibberish on the bottom of these plastic cups, but if I categorically see the [ 1 ], then its take it. I cut it up or scrunch it and insert into container deposit PET bottles. I am not mixing materials. If its PET then its PET - period. Then its off to the container deposit facility with it.

    The best solution for bags is to make very durable bags that can be re used for 5-10 years. I have a few bags that cost more but have lasted a few years so far. It would reduce the amount of emissions. They already make the bags. All sorts of bags. I bought one meant for carrying 36 cans and use it for groceries. I also use a duffle bag for when I have to walk to get groceries. Costco also doesn't have bags, they will offer boxes. It's the boxes that they get shipments in. Some boxes they use can be re used if you need to box something up. My dad used to collect the good boxes when he worked there. He still has stuff stored in some of them.
