Trashy Nature

The challenge

Decreasing and changing waste and consumption habits by adapting towards a low to zero waste life. The main problem we are addressing is the high amount of waste generated by us as consumers. We think our fast needs and general consumption habits are likely driven by easy offerings from the industry with the mindset of a dated system: human convenience over nature. We ask questions about the necessity of products around us, we observe, test and share our knowledge around living without waste.

The solution

Making connections with local businesses (e.g. cheesestore, farmer, butcher, market) to create new solutions while generating less waste together. Bring what we have, not use what we don’t really need; with this motto we are not stimulating bringing unnecessary materials into our waste stream. We create awareness by offering workshops, webminars and in house tours for people to get familiar with our concepts and create a community mindset.
