Historically, the biggest problems come from companies trying to save marginal production costs.
Throughout the last century, the way companies make products has created irreversible damage to the planet. This means valuable raw materials become worthless waste because the materials cannot be reused at the end of a product’s lifecycle.
This results in a lot of CO2, toxins and pollution
Instead of finding new ways to recycle the products, they are burned, end up in the ground as well as in our oceans. With these processes, toxic substances and CO2 continue to damage our living environment.
Instead of using materials sparingly, a lot of them go to waste
This has resulted in environmental pollution, climate change and the depletion of resource stocks.
While we can reuse €73,000,000 worth of raw materials each year
This must and can be done differently!
