Plastic Free July | Day 19

Plastic Free July

Day 19

Today for plastic free July I did this Japanese art of folding called Furoshiki. Furoshiki is a traditional wrapping cloth technique which can be used to transport clothes, gifts and other goods. We found out about this tradition when we went to a workshop in Greymouth a while ago called the Rubbish Trip.

Did you know that globally approx 100,000,000 marine animals are killed each year by plastic waste.

  1. I really enjoyed going to The Zero Waste Rubbish Trip workshop with you last year Emil, Hannah and Liam have great zero waste ideas. Fingers crossed some people check out the embedded link for do-able zero waste ideas and recipes☺. My favourite zero-waste concepts are composting. Worm farming- green waste composting and Bokashi for leftover foodwaste. What do you think about this? Do you find it easy or hard and will you share it?
