Tips and tricks to reduce waste and have a better life

Survey

The survey was answerd by 10 students from Holland ISC in 2019

​

The rapidly increasing quantities of waste generated and plastic pollution on European countries is the major environmental concern. The OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development), as cited on EEA (2019), estimates that Europe produce 250 million tonnes of municipal waste and more than 850 million of industrial waste per year.

The European Environment Agency also contend that the present disposal and processing capacity cannot the expected growth of 3% per year of waste production. This website will provide tips to the students from Holland ISC in order to reduce waste and plastic pollution hence, developing a new green lifestyle.

Over the past few years, plastic pollution in the oceans has become an important environmental concern for governments, scientists, nongovernmental organizations and the public around the world. The main cause of marine plastic pollution is the enormous amount of plastic waste that humans produce and do not process correctly, dumping into the ocean. According to Jambeck (2015) the 192 coastal countries produce about 275 million metric tons of plastic waste each year and the plastic waste flowing from land to sea is spread throughout the Earth by ocean currents. The plastic particles break down into the sun and become micro plastics, which pollute the seafood and the seafood can inhibit reproduction and development and change how species function, disperse and assemble. Organisms at every level of biological organization, altering gene expression, cells, and tissues, causing death, and altering population size and community structure can be affected by plastic (Borrelle, et al, 2016). By 2025, the amount of plastic waste in the sea will double (Jambeck 2015). Government policies and international agreements are essential to solving marine plastic pollution, but all of them stem from people's interests and efforts.

We're an ocean-loving, family-run organisation based in South Devon, in the UK.

We set up Less Plastic in 2015 to raise awareness of the issues caused by ocean plastic and provide individuals & organisations with easy-to-action steps to help them to significantly cut their plastic usage.
We offer inspiration, tools and strategies to enable individuals, businesses, schools and organisations of all sizes to use less plastic.
Our talks and workshops share our 5 Steps to become a Plastic Game Changer framework, providing attendees with everything they need to start reducing plastic in their professional roles and personal lives, straight away.

Our simple, visual infographics have inspired change in businesses & communities around the world. Printed copies are available to order here. For digital copies or international shipping, contact us. Also available in several languages.

We're heartened by the rise in public concern about plastic pollution globally, and we're honoured to have gained a large following on Instagram and Facebook as a result. However, local community is very important to us too. We run monthly beach cleans in collaboration with Surfers Against Sewage, and lead #PlasticFreeKingsbridge to recognise single-use plastic reduction efforts in our hometown.

We're a small organisation with a big ambition to make single-use plastic a thing of the past. If you'd like to make a difference to the ocean plastic crisis, please share our content to inspire your friends, family and colleagues to use less plastic too. Together we can be Plastic Game Changers.

Belbin also defined characteristic weaknesses that tend to accompany each team role. He called the characteristic weaknesses of team roles the "allowable" weaknesses. As with any behavioral weakness, these are areas to be aware of and potentially improve. The nine team roles are summarized in figure 1, below.

Firstly, it was neccesary to make some research about what is Chemical Engineering about.
Here there is some useful information provided by the University of Twente about the Bachelor's degree.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Develop new (sustainable) processes and materials, using chemistry as your starting point

What is the most efficient way of storing electrical energy? What kind of filter would it take to filter out as much clean hydrogen from a mixture of gases? What composition would you expect from a material that is superconducting at a relatively high temperature, and how could you make it? If this variety of questions intrigues you, the three-year, English-taught Bachelor's programme Chemical Science & Engineering at the University of Twente is the right choice for you.

In this Bachelor's programme, the focus is on the technological application of chemistry. You will become an expert in designing and developing new (sustainable) processes and materials, using chemistry as your starting point.
