Alma Eko :
A PHILOSOPHY that
we want to share.
Having an ECOLOGICAL SOUL : it is the only thing you need to share our philosophy of respect for Nature and have a goal ( ambitious, we know) which is to achieve zero plastic waste and its derivatives, to combat the degradation of our environment.
Let's go with the data that we like to give you so much. just on the plastic waste that should make our "hair stand on end": today it is estimated that between 4.8 and 12.7 million tons of plastic end up in the seas and oceans every year and given the resistance of these materials to degradation, it amounts to more than 150 million tons of plastic "flooding" our waters with the obvious problems and risks that this entails: harm to marine life - evident degradation of the habitat, entanglement of marine species in drifting nets... , and exposure to chemical substances due to ingestion of these materials by them , etc. -, a problem that in turn affects human health through the food chain.
And the same thing happens with the climate now that it is so fashionable to talk about climate change. Do you know that recycling a million tons of plastic saves the planet from the harmful CO2 ( carbon dioxide, the main cause of the "greenhouse effect"), which would be emitted by a million cars driving on the roads of the planet? But if you still do not consider that we should banish plastic from our way of life, let's talk about money, or rather, about ECONOMY , because plastic waste from our seas and oceans has an added cost; this marine litter causes economic damage to the fishing and tourism sectors mainly, valued between 259 and 695 million euros.
Now, if you add the extraordinary resistance of these materials to decomposition, more than 500 years, aren't these enough reasons to stimulate your ecological spirit?
