every year 8 million tons of
plastic they end up in the ocean then what
which is equivalent to emptying a truck of the
garbage every minute
if we continue like this according to the UN for 2050
there will be more tons of plastic than
fish in the ocean
the plastic does not biodegrade only
it breaks into smaller particles but
without changing its chemical composition it can
become imperceptible to the eye
human what does not mean that
disappear recent studies have been
found plastic in honey in salt
in drinking water and even in the
air that we breathe I did not want to continue
contributing something like that so one day
he calls for two and a half years
He proposed to start seeing a plastic
to me the truth is that the idea in a
I was not attracted by anything, it seemed
that it would be very complicated to search
all the things we bought
normally not packed in plastic but
well we left a life time in
I rest with the hope that a
Patrick will forget him but well well not
it was and only with starting to be
aware of the possibility of living
without plastic I started to see plastic by
all sides more or less I realized
that almost everything he bought came with
something plastic and many times the use
so ridiculous that I was doing the
I remember once at work
I ‘m going to buy a salad
typical prepared salad that you sell
in many
that also in a big bowl you open it and
the different ones come to you
ingredients also wrapped in
plastics comes the dressing with a
plastic bag and it comes
likewise the plastic fork when
I started being scared of the
amount of waste that had generated
for a simple meal and I thought that
surely bulked up more everything
I was at the table that I had
Eaten
The curious thing about that day is that it was not the
first time that such a salad
if it was not the first time I looked at him
with other plastic eyes has happened
become part of our lives
that almost goes unnoticed
we realize his presence is as if
did not exist that day I come home and I
it said I also want to start
live without plastic so I take advantage
quickly that moment of lucidity to
open a blog that very good
originally titled live without
plastic and whose main objective was
make our public commitment to not
abandon the first difficulty that
we had the first thing we did was
save all plastics that we had to
throughout the week and on Sunday
put it on a table and make them
a photo this was the photo of the first
week as you can see it was not any
success now when we see it what more
it surprises us like two people who
are trying to avoid the plastic we
carry in their own bag when they go to
to buy
the truth that we were much more
dependent on what we imagined but
good we decided themes with a game
that the first goal was to get the first
Sunday in which there was no single
plastic on the table is the picture of
the second week there are actually
I would miss a plastic because you can see
down the stage of a coffee to go
but the cup is not there and that is
Most stay are coated
by a plastic film or by
inside that actually what you do
recyclable that have their logic but that
this makes it recycle once we do not
we knew it at that moment when
we discover how we like so ago
experiments we separated in this video
you can say good is a very movie
finite there is no tangle only assumes 5%
but as we say this you do it
recyclable and only in the USA are used
28,000 cups of this type every minute
until the photo of the following week
as you can see we are going a little
improving but in reality we also
we are cheating you know up
we started to put all the bags
stuck so that you do not turn around so much
but it was really a bit to see us
Bouncy I do not really know why
we made the case one of these bags
it is still a bag to load
the purchase of the supermarket or the
shop at home or three weeks later
we are still using type bags
shirts so we decided that not one
more every second are used in the world
160 thousand bags every second we did not want
continue contributing to that number and
increase it or leave it as it is
then we decide it does not matter if
we left to get married in a bag or
we go up and take one or
we do not buy we take the purchase in
the hand under the armpit as before
of taking a purchase many times we did
things like chimpanzee wings
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
although we have never been able to, we have
than to admit it to bring anything to the
feet but
until the photo of the following week more
or less the same in the bottle that you see
down there was the last bottle of water
disposable that we have used passes
equal 20 thousand per second in the world
when I make it as easy as carrying a
reusable water bottle then
we also realized that many
of the waste that we generate from
plastic bags were feeding by
one side were the product bags
fresh like mix salad
Swiss chard spinach and then the
solution as a very simple
We started buying two lettuces and the
we mixed at home so there was no need
no type of bag with chard and
spinach therefore the
we bought in bunches that come out more
cheap ones are cooler so either
all the advantages and then on the other hand
there were also the product bags
dried as they were cereals legumes
dried fruit pasta to avoid this type
of packaging we had to leave a little bit
the stores where we are used to
buy and look for bulk stores there are
traditional life stores of
this guy who warn photo and then
open many modern where you can
find practically everything
we also got some bags of
fabric to avoid any kind of
disposable that is like how is that
You see in the photo
that already with this we stop using
Any other type of packaging or bags
and our purchases began to take
a completely different appearance
everything we bought loose and when
We could not buy something loose
we use our cloth bags and if
we had to buy something packaged
we were better by glass before
for the plastic as it is recycled more
easy and ends in the environment does not
it is so problematic
also our health improved better
very much because we started to buy
we stop buying processed products
and more or less we ate everything fresh and
until our kitchen thanked him he started
to have this appearance instead of
have them cupboards full of bags
half-finished he started to have this
appearance that everything is much more
ordered and is much more aesthetic
another place where more plastic had blackberry
in the bathroom it seems that never
we have enough cosmetics does not
missing a cream for the night face
other diurnal facial lotion
exfoliating body cream
anti-cellulite exfoliating moisturizer
antiestrías we decided that no
we needed so many so many products
we need not want them
now how do we use oils one
for the body and another for the face and not
is more than enough the problem of
cosmetics that part of the packaging of
plastic too many of them have
micro particles in their composition the
microparticles as you can see the photos are
very little plastic balls that
they make them so that they clean the
problem is that they are designs
basically for them to go by the
drainage and the sewage treatment plants do not have
filters capable of preventing from reaching the
river seas and lakes there many animals
well they end up confusing it with food
and they end up swallowing according to the program
of the nations’ environment
attached – a single exfoliating gel can
have so much plastic in its formulation
as in the container that contains it for
avoid this we start doing our
own toothpaste recipes
mouthwash and deodorant
in gel and shampoo we replace it with
solid pills
If you have any protest at home
you can read the ingredients and the
first it’s always water, it does not have
no sense the packaged transported
to pay for something that has simply
open the shower tap us
We buy the rest of ingredients
water we put it
with war
with household cleaning products
the same thing does not need a product
specific for each part of the house
as for the kitchen to the bathroom the floor the
actually wood with lemon baking
soap and water you can clean almost everything and
if you do not like to use these
ingredients, there are always stores
that each time a ship is opening more
where you can also find the
detergents in bulk to weight
well, we keep trying little by little
come the week we did not have anything
good paper handkerchiefs with
dispenses are paper but always
comes wrapped in plastic we’re sorry
by the drop it goes out of fashion as are the
cloth handkerchiefs that for example was
our last pot of moisturizer
this good there are also unexpected things
because you for example we ask for a
pizza and we thought good that’s food and
cardboard, not because we opened it and it came
with those two stops on top of
they put one but two
there we will not invite a coffee with a
plastic teaspoon inside
and if we got it this week but it was
my birthday and the fair on Sunday
when we thought it was going to be our
first week without plastic they gave me
a shirt and the tag came with
this plastic thread not much but we
it took away our hope to get you
it was the first week
it’s good I have a relapse does not happen
nothing
this Sunday I went I was eating with
A friend and she says good and as a keychain
of plastic and it ‘s great because the
first week that I do not have one and
shortly after the waiter appears with
this page stuck in a good juice almost
he killed the straws others seem to be
insignificant because they are very
light little ones and there’s always
plastics worse but this makes it
consume massively throughout the world
only 500 million are used in the USA
straws a day if I put them in a
behind another
would be two laps back and a half
the earth then you are the ones that
We pick up a walk on the beach and for
weekend after teams of weeks arrived
to 2000
the truth is that once we change
our way of buying and what
we turned into routine everything became
much more simple right now
done we do not realize that we are
avoiding the plastic does not know a way
natural the next challenge that we
we put after what the table was that
all the plastics that we had in
2016 would fit in this in these two
jars we do not have one each one no
we have then problems of couple not
they only did not fit the 2016
also those of 2017 are those two jars
are all the plastics that we have
used in the last two years a lot
people when they find out about this they think
good that is a torture is a
sacrifice as if we raised each
tomorrow you wait in talks mode in the
back but it ‘s a lot less
true that this way a super road
rewarding we have not had much fun
experience action our recipe we have
discovered a lot of place where
buy and we also feel better with
ourself because we are seeing a
way a little more according to our
values
many people do not say so much
effort if the plastic can be
recycle is recycled and end of the problem and
it’s true plastic you can recycle what
what happens when we think of
recycle we want to think that we put a
container of any object in the
recycling bin and it’s going to
get something in the same container or some
similar in the case of plastic this
it rarely happens normally you get
a product that has nothing to do
with original and that is not going to be able
recycle again so always
virgin material is also needed in the
currently in the world only
recycles 5% of the plastic for that reason to
we liked to focus on other
Rs that are before recycling where
we have the absolute control
reality when we put something to recycle
we never know for sure what’s going
to be of it however if we
we focus on others, it’s like rejecting
reduce and reuse yes we can
have absolute control reject everything
that we do not need to reject the straws
water bags disposable cups
whenever we are accepting a
product of this kind in some way
we are helping him to become
manufactured
reduce we do not need so many cream
not so many cosmetics or so many things
as we have at home that barely
we use the truth that there is nothing
how to simplify and reuse good
Nor is it a matter of the whole
plastic that we have at home we throw it
through the window we have to continue
using it until until it
break and when we need to buy some
new object we should always be
for good long-lasting objects that
they can serve us as many times as
We need all disposables
can replace with an object
reusable many people also us
comment how bad you are if you
you are not going to change the world if people
will continue to use plastic hopefully
we could change the world is not so
easy what happens that at least not
we want to contribute to make it worse
Sometimes we think that the problems
environmental problems is something alien to
us when in reality many times
they are due to the sum of small actions
we may not be pulling
directly a bottle or anything in the
ocean or in the environment but at
same time in our way of consumption
and our lifestyle what is it
provoking and in our hands is
do something to avoid it we think that a
idea that deserves to be shared
