Let’s talk about reuse, ♻️, one of the most important steps to implement if we want to transition to a #circulareconomy. In this episode of #BelieveCircular, myself and Sarah Tosone who works for BoomerangAlliance (where she focuses on finding ways and new systems to expand the everyday use of #ReusableCups in our society) breakdown the opportunities and challenges around this topic. Together we explore the why, the how, the benefits and discuss how recyclable a coffee cup is in Australia. Furthermore, Sarah and I contemplate on what it will be like in #Sweden when I go back next time , the reality is that I struggled to find Reusable cups when I was there before Xmas, it took a trip to London to find one 😯 but with the new legislation in Sweden, deriving from the EU introduced since the 1st of Jan 2024, that is enforcing a Reuse system at all fast food centers serving over 150 drinks/plates per day, we both hope to see a rapid improvement in this space 💪 Use the link below to listen to the whole conversation and let’s all join the "Reusie" movement! https://lnkd.in/gPp-9VMA Finally, I have to admit that I think the time has come for a positive “#shame and #blame” culture where we actively use this to encourage each other to behave better i.e. to remember to bring our reusable cup or bottle when we head out (noting that I myself belong to the forgetful category, and need reminding at times) and to encourage cafeterias to serve in reusable cups (I recently asked to sit down and get a real cup and was still served coffee in a take away cup 🙈). If you are a cafe owner, please check out how to join the #PlasticFreeProgram currently offered via the Boomerang Alliance, via this link here https://lnkd.in/gFRYrsnx. I think key take away from this discussion is that we all need to help each other to work together towards reducing the usage of millions of “single take away items” 🤩☕️🥤 We hope you will enjoy this episode, have a great day!

I’m working on a report on single-use #plastic #wastes and want to connect with people/ start-ups/ corporates/ grassroots NGOs who are working on INNOVATIVE ways to upcycle/recycle such wastes, and are implementing their work a slightly larger scale. #Innovation is the key here. Are you such an innovator who is working on single-use plastic wastes? Please connect with me. Help me connect with such innovators so that we can include some innovations and their impact (after fact-checking) in the report. #plastics #wastes #plasticwaste #innovation #upcycling #recycling #CHINTAN

Kentish Town Vegbox use Foldable Shopping Bags for their weekly deliveries. Smartbags created these practical Foldable Nylon Bags for Kentish Town Vegbox - a weekly vegetable and fruit scheme providing locally sourced produce from small-scale organic farms. As an environmentally conscious organisation, Kentish Town Vegbox is very conscious about their use of packaging. They chose reusable nylon bags because nylon is relatively inexpensive, light and compact. It also has a lower carbon footprint than cotton and jute bags. Nylon is robust and long-lasting, making the bags an economical choice as they can be used again and again for several years.

In celebration of #EarthDay2024, the palm Compost Bin is set to launch on Kickstarter tomorrow. Alquemy is thrilled to have collaborated on the development of this ground breaking product.

However, the Palm Bin's intelligent technology and refined user experience tackle these issues, offering a beautifully crafted solution that you'll proudly display on your countertop.

Imagine if our favourite snacks subtly became reminders to #recycle ... 🤔 I've been thinking...what if well-known brands (such as Pringles, McDonald's 🍔, etc.) temporarily swapped their iconic logos with the big recycling symbol♻️? A constant visual nudge towards responsible disposal. This alone won't solve our waste problems, but it: 1. Makes brands part of the solution 2. Targets kids, fostering eco-conscious daily habits 3. Sparks conversation about #sustainability and #corporateresponsibility Thoughts? 🤔 #recycling #ecofriendly #Pringles #Mcdonald's #sustainable
