WASTED. A neighborhood laboratory for plastic waste upcycling. | Barbara Koole | TEDxAUCollege

Using her own project WASTED as an example, Barbara shares her vision on how we can reduce plastic waste while giving back to the community. "Think global, act local" is an important notion in this talk, as Barbara addresses recycling problems in Northern Amsterdam. Prepare to be called a 'plasticaholic' and get WASTED.

Barbara is an environmental visionary and project manager at WASTED, a community action project in Amsterdam focusing on the processing of plastic waste on a small scale. The WASTED program promotes recycling and environmental consciousness while giving back to local people and involving them in the recycling process.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
