How do I involve someone else?
Would you like more to inspire more people to join this Challenge? Explaining the concept of Zero Waste is a bit difficult. It cost me a lot of time and that is why I am so grateful to my Ex-Colleague Yara Montenegro for explaining to me. It is very important that all people understand the concept that garbage does not exist. The best way you can add someone else to the movement is by showing them the short documentary Project Zero Trash Challenge. You can find it on YouTube.
Grow the movement !!!
You can also help this movement grow by showing the Challenge video to more people at your school or workplace. It is under the Creative Commons license so I invite you to share it with the whole world so that more people join this beautiful Challenge for Earth. For example, you can present it at your workplace, school, church, at the neighborhood meeting, at your university, or wherever you can think of. Once people understand what you do and why you do it, it is easier for them to no longer judge you and start living a lifestyle with less garbage.
The most important is the paradigm shift
Of course, no one has to get involved in doing it perfectly, but once they have understood the concept they can start carrying their cloth bags, rejecting disposables, etc. Don’t be frustrated if they are still producing a lot or a little garbage. At least your work on sensitizing them is already done.
Sensitize the authorities
Another very important point is the awareness of your decision makers. The people in charge of Waste Management in your country, in your State and in your Community must have clear goals regarding a good management of Urban Solid Waste. That is why he invited you to sensitize your leaders and authorities and to invite them to know and implement this new paradigm of Zero Waste.
