“I think we are only going in one direction. If we don’t do anything, that’s it! We are at war with plastic. We are from a generation where we are all throwing away plastic as if it is normal, without realising it’s wrong. We need to slowly change our minds and reverse the damage that has been done.Now we know, no excuse, it has to be done”
“It’s not that hard to do, when you have changed one thing for a week, you forget having used that throw-away plastic at all! We are not inventing anything now. We are from a generation of craziness and we are going back to normal and nothing more, just common sense.”
