Challenge

The Circular Economy is an overarching approach to sustainability that touches every aspect of life, yet it can seem like an abstract and distant solution to the climate challenges facing us today.

Solution

Fortunately, there are already ways to shop, donate, and recirculate our materials so that others can use them. The aim of this project is to make the existing resources visible.

Impact

While this project began as a personal research tool, after sharing it online the initial prototype went viral. Now the ambition for this project to become an open-source map of locally available sustainable resources for people and companies around the world.
