Zero Waste Living Tips
Towards Zero Waste Living
Circular Economy is all about reducing, reusing, and recycling. We are working with the business side to redesign their goods in small or big ways so it makes it easier for us all to be circular.
Now this app we are recommending is by an Australian Female founder. The only thing we recommend is that you also use Reforest and offset your Carbon Footprint, if you choose to, through them.
Their trees are planted and monitored in places like the Mabi forest, which is critically endangered, on the Tablelands in FNQ where the last habitat for Tree Kangaroos in Australia is located.
WHY BECOME A CIRCULAR CITIZEN
We have micro factories we are launching in Far North QLD that will process waste [resources] in place and turn it into products that can be used in our local economy.
Passive Tiny Houses & Biochar are just two outputs that can help our local farmers transition to Regenerative Agriculture.
The Bedminster System that is phasing out in 2026, in 9 councils, sold contaminated compost to farmers from our red bins, local farmers stated it caused fields of diamonds, as it had glass and micro plastics in it.
Our solutions are better.
As our micro factories grow we will have green jobs to help us deliver circular business model solutions for the 7 types of plastics and contaminated Agriculture and industry waste including tyres in our region.
Another reason to join us is Book Club -
we discuss the books we have on our list and will also take suggestions. Collective Intelligence and human centred design are on the menu.
The one thing you can do to reduce your footprint is to stop buying as much synthetic clothing, we know gym and walking gear is hard not to, but reduce is the key. Every piece of synthetic clothing you buy contributes to micro plastics in the Surface Micro Layer.
We will be talking about that subject as that is our Roman Empire and part of our Blue Carbon Project we are working on.
It is the tipping point to climate change, we regenerate the surface micro layer of the ocean, we can turn the tide on climate change.
Everything we do is for that 1mm of the ocean. As it's ripple effects will be global.
