I will discuss it with my team, but personally I think it's always good to post videos like these to get the discussion going. What is recycling, what is the circular economy about? And maybe this might not be the best option, but it will get people to think critically on the subjects. And who knows, maybe someone - on the other side of the world - gets inspired by your ideas and does figure out a way to contribute to the circular economy. Good luck today, Jim!

Hi Simone,
Thank you for your kind words. You may not want to post it. I am being blasted by the circle economy community who says this is not circular economy but only downgrade recycling. I guess I have a lot to learn about the circular economy. Try, fail, try again, That's how I get better. Always amazed at how quick people are to criticise and trash but when asked for help to improve or better yet provide a solution or constructive advice.... silence. Back to the drawing board. Hopefully today's event at the KvK will help!
Groetjes,
Jim

Hi Maaike,

Outdoor advertising has a high impact on our environment. Some say it will never be able to be truly sustainable and it will be hard challenged to meet the high standards of the circular economy. But with a little effort, I believe it can be both.
Here is a link to a video that shows how something as common as a discarded beer bottle can be turned into an outdoor promotional print. Unfortunately, Amsterdam has recently banned natural-media but that is not going to stop the small, innovative industry that now has over 100 companies producing natural-media campaigns around the world, 15 right here in the Netherlands!
