January 9: #GoingZeroWaste Upcycle Workshop
THIS SATURDAY GET READY TO BE CREATIVE
CUZ WE ARE GOING TO UPCYCLE!
Welcome all to our 4th event of Part 2 (Action) of the
Going Zero Waste Awareness Campaign.
In this cool workshop we’ll be learning about upcycling and turning old clothes into a beautiful handbag.
What is Upcycling?
Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products perceived to be of greater quality, such as artistic value or environmental value.
Why Upcyling?
We are currently in a trash crisis. Our atmosphere has the most CO2 levels in history, and our oceans have large whirlpools of trash and plastic. Upcycling can help bring these numbers down by preventing the amount of waste that we discard.
By upcycling we remove the need to produce new or raw materials. By reducing this need, we can cut down on air pollution, water pollution, landfill use, and even greenhouse gas emissions. For example, instead of dumping old wine bottles or beer bottles, you could cut off the top and use them for candles, or DIY chandlers. Using old bottles can prevent the amount of glass that has to go to landfills. By upcycling you are actually taking positive steps to impacting the environment for the better.
