  • Resumen

  • The average Australian drinks about three cups of coffee a week. Despite many “environmentally friendly” options, most disposable coffee cups still have a plastic lid, along with a plastic layer within the cup. These cups require a special process to decompose that involves 120 days in continuous 60-degree heat – throwing these cups into a landfill does not automatically break them down. When Flavia Guardia realised how much waste that generated, she set out to find ways to turn disposable coffee cups into something compostable. Now, she’s an entrepreneur, working to make recycled disposable coffee cups into a new home for growing flowers, veggies and herbs - making rubbish disappear in a real environmental, responsible and eco-friendly way. With her help, coffee cups are recreated as germination cubes, eco-pot starter kits and punnets to grow flowers, veggies and herbs. Today on International Zero Waste Day, our episode of Extra Credit features Guardia’s journey as she transitioned from a fashion degree into creating her own sustainable, zero-waste startup, Eco Enviro Concepts.
