How many ‘disposable’ pieces of plastic and rubbish to we take ‘dispose’ of every day. And have you ever thought about where it all goes? Now we definitely live in an era, where disposable shouldn’t be an option. But it’s the age old story of the big corporates having the say, the super companies that feeds on the smaller, more fragile companies, and people. An example would be the NIKE shoes, that is, you guessed it, disposable after a 100 km. A mindset that is not moving with the times and cultural, societal changes.
Ever thought that the world would be a perfect place if it wasn’t for us, the species of living creatures that has a nature of destruction, without having a conscience. Have you lately checked your disposability, how easy it is for this earth to throw you out? Nature has a funny way of fixing the problem, even if the problem is, us…

The world would hardly be a better place without us, in a few billion years, the sun will destroy earth. Only humanity has the power to prevent that from happening. I like to see us as the earth´s ensurance policy. Sure we pollute. but when the time come, we will be saving earth.
