Bali — tropical island paradise to those who visit. But to those who live there, the reality of its waste problem is serious and urgent. Enter Peduli Bali, a waste recycling company that has entirely reimagined the approach to resource-use, recycling, and waste management.
Wildly innovative, artistically emboldened, and experimental to a profound degree, Peduli Bali has discovered a way to take discarded wine, beer, and water bottles and turn them into something beautiful. Rather than ending up in illegal dumps, rivers, and beachfronts, this old glass (often leftover from the tourism industry), passes through the hands of skilled artisans and finds new life as upcycled art.
The karma carafe and drinking glasses are a gorgeous representation of Peduli Bali’s hope for the future. If we all take responsibility, support eco-friendly and sustainable approaches to living, we may actually achieve that bold vision of Zero Waste, where products are made to be reused, repaired, and returned to nature. |
