"When I was about 7 years old, I begged my parents to let me have a small aquarium in my room. They hemmed and hawed, but they finally gave in. Although I fed them on schedule and cleaned their tank regularly, all three of them died suddenly within a week of each other. I was devastated, and it dawned on me that I had no idea what a fish wants or needs. They’re animals who’ve figured out how to survive in the ocean for more than 500 million years! That’s a mind-boggling amount of time spent evolving and adapting to their habitat—a habitat that no tank can rival."

Are you or someone you know thinking of purchasing a "pet" fish? Read this list before making your decision.Hi, sustainable people,
We are Darija and Austėja. We’re from small country Lithuania with the big dream – to reduce plastic in the oceans with socks! 🌊
Yes, with socks. After a lot of tests we have created socks made from recycled plastic bottles and organic materials. As a result: 1 pair of socks = 51 plastic bottles reduced.
50 plastic bottles with supporting Plastic Bank organization that cleans oceans and 1 plastic bottle with recycled plastic bottle yarns (RPET).
And we have a BIG event – this sustainable project has appeared on the Kickstarter! [www.kickstarter.com/projects/1398731533/ukai-socks-reducing-plastic-from-the-oceans](www.kickstarter.com/projects/1398731533/ukai-socks-reducing-plastic-from-the-oceans)
Only with your support we can make this project come true. We will be so grateful if you share our story with your colleagues and friends.
It’s not an advertisiment – it's a sign of support for small brands and big dreams. Only together we can make a change. 🌱

Zero waste was on LRT 😀 I had the chance to share about my sustainable habits ♻️
Do you think that multiplying such broadcasts will have a real influence on people to do more eco-friendly choices?
The topic was "how to stay sustainable during the pandemic" 🦠🌿 They also talk about greenwashing and minimalism. Here's the link of the video (LT): www.lrt.lt/mediateka/irasas/2000119641/ekologiska-lietuvos-belgo-ekologiski-patarimai-zaliasis-sm...

ApartButUnited is a collective action program focused on spreading proven impact models that respond to challenges of the Pandemic.BIO-PLASTICS EUROPE’s Project Manager Dr. Jelena Barbir just finished her second week of Plastic Free July® Challenge and this week, she faced and (mostly!) tackled the gigantic problem of plastic packaging in her daily life. This is not surprising, as in 2017, 173.8 kg of packaging waste was generated per inhabitant in the EU, of which 19% was plastic waste.
To reduce the plastic wastage through grocery shopping, Dr. Barbir switched from super markets to local markets and vowed to only buy from stalls that offered paper packaging. However, she did find it challenging to find her favourite products and to still avoid the plastic that came along with it! When it came to berries, Dr. Barbir went a step ahead and instead of buying prepacked berries, she went to a local farm and picked raspberries herself, filling up a container she brought herself! What a fun and innovative way of solving a problem!
At the same time, Dr. Barbir found it immensely hard to avoid plastic packaging when it came to buying cosmetic products. Do you have any suggestions for her to shop for cosmetics plastic-free? If so, share your tips under our post here: www.facebook.com/pg/Bioplastics-Europe-104251307904134/posts/
