Holiday shopping? Make it 2nd hand! 😍 Last Sat

Holiday shopping? Make it 2nd hand! 😍

Last Saturday we met up at Het Goed in Eindhoven @hetgoedeindhoven for Green Cafe event "Make second hand your first choice". It was great to learn more about Het Goed, and after the introduction our group went for a hunt for things we had on our lists. It was great to see that we all found things we needed, in good condition, small price and better for the planet than buying it new 🌎

Help Sint and Piet to find second hand gifts 🎁

Help Sint and Piet to find second hand gifts 🎁

Let's normalize giving second hand gifts for Sinterklaas! (Of course for other holidays too, it is not that long that Santa will also come around 🎅) Now it is the time to go look around your house, maybe you have some toys and other items in your house that you don't need anymore? Sell them online, bring them to a second hand store, give them to friends and family or exchange them to something else?

Let's make this the most sustainable holiday season! 🎁

26th of July - Let's pick up litter!

After a successful cigarette clean up, join us to clean the neighbourhoods of Irisbuurt and Rochusbuurt once more. This time the focus on all the trash, not just cigarettes. Maybe we will find some treasures along the way? (At least a bottle or a can with statiegeld 😉)

We meet at @koffiekeuten at 14:00, and clean for about an hour. You can also join for a shorter time if you can not join for a full hour. If you have second hand trash bags, feel free to bring them. There will be pick up tools available for adults and kids too, and gloves.

See you next week at 14:00? Feel free to send a DM to sign up or via info@eindjegroen.nl

“We don’t need a handful of people doing zero

“We don’t need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly” - Anne Marie Bonneau, Zero Waste Chef.

8th of July Katja joined Zero Waste Week in Breda, what an inspiring day 💫

In the morning there was Peuken Party (see the 2nd picture) and we collected cigarette butts for one hour. Total? Around 5000, and the distance was just around 300 meters. Pretty crazy right? (If you smoke, please put your cigarette in the bin and carry a little container with you to collect them, an old jar will do just fine. Cigarette butts break into microplastics and contain toxins, they don't belong in the nature).

The first picture was taken during the after party with other zero waste guides. Let's keep on doing good things and inspiring others! Start small, but start now, our Earth needs everyone 🌏

1 hour, 7 people, 2800 cigarettes. Thank you ever

1 hour, 7 people, 2800 cigarettes.

Thank you everyone who came on Saturday to make Geldropseweg cleaner and took part in the Plastic Butt Smut Day! This was first official cleanup event together with @troeptroopers at Irisbuurt/Rochusbuurt. Would you like to join a clean up in these neighbourhoods? Send a DM or an email to info@eindjegroen.nl

❌ A kind reminder: Please don't throw your cigarette butt on the ground. In the wild they will break down into microplastics and they contain harmful chemicals. After entering water, chemicals start to spread into the water within an hour 💧

💡 Simple solution is to carry a small container with you (like an old spice jar for example) where you can store cigarette butts till you can find a bin or bring them home with you. What other solutions can you think of?

Zero waste walking tours 💫

We lead two zero waste walking tours this spring in Eindhoven, one in English and one in Dutch. There are some easy ways you can get started and some will even be cheaper. Did you know that starting from 1st of July places can charge you for a single use container for take away? So this is a good time to start bringing your own 👏

Would you like to learn more? More tours are in the planning or you can always book a private tour for your own group. Just email us or send a DM.

Join us on the 1st of July to collect cigarette butts. It is the national cigarette butt day by @het.peukenmeisje & this is also the first event with @troeptroopers in Rochusbuurt & Irisbuurt (Eindhoven). Everyone is welcome! If you can, please bring your own (used) trash bag/container to collect with you and gloves and/or a trash pick up tool. See also the second picture how to easily calculate cigarette butts.

We meet in front of @koffiekeuten at 13:55 and at 14:00 we start collecting. We collect and meet back at Koffie Keuten at 15:00 to see how many we collected.

Please sign up via email info@eindjegroen.nl or sending a private message.

See you there!

1 cigarette = 1000 liters of polluted water 😦

1 cigarette = 1000 liters of polluted water 😦

Cigarettes don't belong on our streets and not in the nature. That is why on the 1st of July we are taking action in Eindhoven with the initiative of @het.peukenmeisje to collect as many cigarette butts as we can. So mark your agenda already for the 1st of July! More info will follow.

This is also the first event working together with @troeptroopers in Rochusbuurt and Irisbuurt area. Together we can do more 💯

Can you guess which are these locations in Eindhoven that have the @zerowastenederland sticker? The sticker promotes and helps you to find locations that accept you to bring your own to-go cups & containers. Handy right? Say no to single use 👏 #zerowaste
