A worldwide idea-sharing platform for innovative ways to deal with waste and the exchange of creative ideas on consumption.

Did you know?

There is more plastic in the oceans than there is plankton.

2.6 billion people in the world do not have access to improved sanitation.

To avoid nuclear waste, people of the German city Schönau bought the energy grid from the domestic provider to change to renewable energies.

North Americans throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour.

In six days, urban India produces an amount of waste that equals twice the weight of the Empire State Building.

No doubt, world summits are essential when it comes to identifying, discussing and agreeing on common grounds to achieve mutual understanding.

But, it is a long way from mutual understanding to collective action and social impact.

And in the meantime ...?

A group of three surfers realized that their favorite surfing spot in the Azores became more and more littered, thus they started collecting trash from the ocean. After separating the waste, a pile of flip-flops reminded them of the skin of a fish. In a 24 hours session they built a fish right on the beach. When asked what to do with it by the local peo-ple, they answered that they would release it into the sea.

CHAllENGE

Next to toxic materials, plastic waste is the big-gest threat to the oceans. Because plastic does not decompose, every single plastic particle will stay in the water for good and will inevitable find its way back to its maker. "We want to raise aware-ness for a cleaner ocean. Plastic does not disap-pear in the water. It takes a flip-flop 1000 years to disappear. By now, the constant flow of human garbage reaches the deepest and most remote re-gions on this planet. According to UNO statistics, every square kilometer of ocean contains 120,000 pieces of floating plastic. In certain parts of the ocean, there is six times more plastic than plank-ton. And yet, macro-waste is still not classified as pollution by law. Mankind turns the sea into a giant waste bin.

IDEA

Using waste that has been collected from the oceans as an artwork raw-material

ImPlEmENTATIoN

Three European surfers, who work as artists, cre-ate sea-life sculptures and exhibit them publicly or release them to the oceans.

ImPACT

Raising awareness on ocean pollution. The artwork is presented on several art-exhibitions worldwide. In 2010 "The Aquarium" in the Basque town of San Sebastian showed 20 pieces of the artists. More than 3,500 visitors and enormous media atten-tion through Spanish TV and newspapers, helped spreading the message of "keeping the oceans clean!", to an even wider audience.

Biomer Plastics Reprocessing

BACkGRouND

BPR claims our perception of waste as merely rub-bish and not as a valuable commodity to be the biggest obstacle solving our waste problem.

The UK is still one of the biggest contributor for the amount of waste entering landfills in the EU. More than half of consumer goods are packaged in plastic. Currently the vast majority of plastics are shipped to Hong Kong, before reprocessed in China.

CHAllENGE

The challenge is twofold. On the one hand, due to the decline in mining industry in the UK, peo-ple in the Rother Valley face unemployment, loss of livelihood and social problems. On the other hand, it is to find a substitute for shipping used consumer goods that contain PET abroad, by tak-ing part in the PET reprocessing market.

IDEA

BPR takes a common PET plastic bottle and upcy-cles it into biodegradable plastic pellets which are used to manufacture medical equipment or per-ishable food packaging.

ImPlEmENTATIoN

BPR is currently seeking funding to build a test facility near Sheffield, United Kingdom. The val-ley was the industrial heartland of mining, before rapid decline after the events of the miners strikes in the 1980s.

ImPACT

A clean, cost effective plastic recycling that stimu-lates local economies.

Fertiloo & Peepoople

BACkGRouND

According to the WHO, more than three billion people in the world have no access to improved sanitation. As a consequence open defecation is widely practiced, contaminating water-sources and spreading preventable water-born diseases.

CHAllENGE

Industrial sanitation solutions are too expensive for developing countries and often disregard local sanitation habits.

IDEA

Both ideas give access to improved sanitation by designing a low-tech solution.

Peepoople is a biodegradable slim bag which is used as a mobile toilet. An inside layer of ster-ile material prevents all contact with the excre-ment and guarantees the bag to be odor-free for at least 24 hours.

The Fertiloo is a light-weight compost latrine which is installed at Kenyan farms. Its design con-siders traditional sanitation habits and human waste can later be used as fertilizer.

ImPlEmENTATIoN

Peepoople AB was founded 2006 and is based in Stockholm, Sweden. Research for the Peepoo toi-let has been conducted in cooperation with the Swedish University of Agricultural Science and the Royal Institute of Technology. It will be available in late-2010.

The Fertiloo was designed by Stanford students and the Kenyan social entrepreneur organiza-tion Nuru and costs less than $100, which is the amount of money saved by not having to buy in-dustrial fertilizer.

ImPACT

Safely collecting and reusing human waste not only reduces family health expenses and improves quality of life, but also helps saving 20% of their annual income currently spent on industrial ferti-lizer and top soil.

Ciudad Saludable

BACkGRouND

Solid waste management is a serious problem in Peru.

Before Ciudad Saludable started its work, some 1,000 tons

of garbage were being generated daily in Cono Norte, one

of Lima’s largest slums. Only half of it got collected by

official municipal workers. Remainders usually were left

to accumulate in stinking waste heaps or strewn along

public roads and in vacant lots. Futhermore waste often

gets dumped into rivers, contaminating the the drinking

sources for many families. This situation is alike in towns

throughout the country.

CHAllENGE

People neither wanted to or couldn’t afford to pay for

public waste collection nor had they an awareness of its

importance to health issues. Levels of education are low

while unemployment and poverty are usually very high.

IDEA

Ciudad Saludable turned these problems into an profit-

able opportunity. By working in partnership with munic-

ipalities, it brought over 1,500 waste collectors in those

slums into employment. Their work in return steadily im-

proves health and living conditions for more than 6 mil-

lion disadvantaged people living in these areas.

ImPlEmENTATIoN

Ciudad Saludable provides highly efficient »low-tech

trash collection and processing« as well as waste man-

agement services that are more dependable and less ex-

pensive than those provided by municipal governments.

It encourages people to pay a modest fee by using crea-

tive and educating marketing incentives that emphazise

the health benefits of waste collection. Paying custom-

ers sometimes get rewarded by planting trees in front of

their houses and prompt payers even receive gifts such as

kitchen baskets.

ImPACT

6 Million peoples living conditions have been improved,

thousands of jobs were generated and the general level

of education and awareness regarding the reasonable

handling of waste raised remarkably. While in upscale

suburbs where the city government collects the trash,

waste collection payment rates are below 40%, the rates

in Ciudad Saludable’s microenterprises districts are over

80% now.

Idea 04


People are proud to have a job and do something good for their community.

And there are many more ...

Seaventures (Kota Kinabalu Sabah, Malaysia), a former oil-digging rig getting a second life as scuba-diving hotel.

Senseable Trash (Seattle, USA), GSM tracking of trash tracks to understand the "removal-chain" in urban areas.

Ubico Studio (Tel Aviv, Israel), sustainable furniture solely made from recycled materials.

Burrowburrow (Rhode Island, USA), creating animal inspired sculptures from broken electronics and ma-chine parts.

InterfaceFLOR (West Yorkshire, UK), first commercial carpet manufacturer taking back its products after use to recycle them creating a real life-cyle.

Earthship Biotecture (New Mexico, USA), Using recy-cled materials to build self-sufficient, off-the-grid housing.

Blikvanger (Venlo, The Netherlands), encouraging children to put litter in a bin by making it enjoyable.

Aymar Ccopacatty (Lake Titicaka, Peru), preserving an ancient spinning and weaving technique using waste.

Waste Land (Jardim Gramacho, Brazil), a movie por-traying a society on the worlds' largest landfill in the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro.

Waste Ventures (Bihar, India), supporting wastepick-ers to collaborate as entrepreneurs, thereby enabling access to international markets.

The Junkman (Vermont, USA), trained percussionist and composer using discarded materials to produce tones not available in traditional instruments.

While world politicians gather at isolated summits, people already take action.

The cases above are consequences of single ideas originated in creativity, suffer, circumstance,

curiosity or need.

many waste ideas and solutions emerge in families, communities and innovative

organisations. often unrecognized.

Everywhere these agents of change take action.

Now.

Some questions remain...

Where and how do we find them? Can we apply their solutions to our problems? Can we multiply their im-pact? How many people haven't we listened to? Why don't we give them a voice? Why don't we use their po-tential? Why don't we support their ideas? Why don't we facilitate a global movement? Is there a global movement, already? Why don't we give access to our own ideas? Why don't we ...

Where and how do we find them? Can we apply their solutions to our problems? Can we multiply their im-pact? How many people haven't we listened to? Why don't we give them a voice? Why don't we use their po-tential? Why don't we support their ideas? Why don't we facilitate a global movement? Is there a global movement, already? Why don't we give access to our own ideas? Why don't we ...

How to give them a voice,

make them visible to all,

NOW?

We make it happen!

We'll map ideas that make waste an issue by providing the world's first idea-sharing and collective intelligence platform solely dedicated to the topic. By making technological, so-cial and cultural waste innovations visible, we pave the ground for a "bottom-up waste revolution".

Our mission is to accompany people to a life with sustainable technologies and holistic ways of consumption, by pragmatically bridging the time until concepts like cradle-to-cradle replace our current industrial "make-take-waste" paradigm.

Our community-driven platform will be a Google or OpenMaps mashup that uses the power of visualization and connectivity to other platforms to foster visual sense-making and the "free" travel of waste ideas around the world.

The most impressive cases are prominently featured on the homepage.

Two search modes: Exploration and edutainment mode for lurkers and low-involved people. Research mode for high-involved pro users.

A detailed rich-media description of every case is extended by social networking functions and the possibility to track the ideas development in other countries.

Our community-driven platform will be a Google or OpenMaps mashup that uses the power of visualization and connectivity to other platforms to foster visual sense-making and the "free" travel of waste ideas around the world.

our application will …

… be the world's first intelligence platform for waste, that not only addresses technological but also social and cultural innovations.

… include social networking functions for spreading and replicating already existing "waste innovations" to other countries

and industry contexts.

… be the first site that collects those ideas in a structured way enabling target-oriented research, comparison and benchmarking.

… make heavy use of visualization for sense-making and inspiration.

… connect like-minded people from all over the world to facilitate the waste revolution.

But... Who will benefit from such a platform?

his companies current business models.

GWI not only helps him monitoring new

market entrances and best practices

worldwide but also provides him with

interesting insights and ideas that pos-

sibly could be integrated into his compa-

nies portfolio. Be it via recruitments, in-

vestments or partnerships with respective

over GWI or by just transfering interesting

(cost-saving) concepts to his business di-

visions.

By the way: Anton also appreciates the

insightful side effect of learning a lot

about the different cultural contexts those

solutions are embedded into.

Oleba knows that many efforts in devel-

local contexts and cultures into account

sufficiently. But she also knows that many

proven ideas and concepts could be eas-

ily transferred to even far-away countries

that have similar problem areas. That’s

why she is very keen on connecting to

peers with same interests. Be it for learn-

ing exchange or even partnering projects.

GWI helps her in various aspects. First of

all, she proudly can make ideas, concepts

and achievements of her organization vis-

ible and accessible for others. Secondly

she is enabled to see, what other help or

even commercial organizations are do-

ing and can transfer their concepts to her

own problems. And thirdly, her work will

benefit from the idea exchange by cata-

lysing eco- or social-entrepreneurship

for people in her field of application with

simple means.

Jeff ClarksPrivate Equity

Like Anton, Jeff is always after the next

big thing. His problem usually never is

having to little money to invest. His day-

by-day challenge is knowing where and

what to buy into with his clients capital.

Western markets are saturated, competi-

tion over the few growing industries is

very tough and risky. He needs to make

informed decisions where business op-

portunites in early stages of their devel-

opment become apparent – especially in

emerging markets like India and South-

East Asia, that are hard to access without

a dense network on-site.

For him GWI is another welcomed source

for scanning early signals. It serves him as

a kind of observation and contact plat-

form for possible investment opportuni-

ties in their earliest stages or at least as

another highly specialized trend watch

tool for a field with highest growth ex-

pectations.

Elin appreciates GWI for its up-to-date

case studies of new waste technologies

and initiatives from other countries in the

world. A short query through the GWI-API

gives important (performance) indicators

for her nation compared to others. She

can use GWI as an additional benchmark

tool to get a feeling of the »innovation

performance« of other countries.

Additionally she becomes aware of

emerging future fields in waste innova-

Susan Steiner (24) // Student @ Zeppelin University, Frie-drichshafen, Germany

Susan Steiner"Ordinary" low-involvement User

Susan is an »ordinary student«, having

better things to do than engaging herself

with waste.

The other day a friend of her posted a re-

ally cool YouTube-Video on Facebook. It

shows a funny bin that thanks every pe-

destrian for throwing in trash, while it

moans with others that carelessly let drop

stuff on the footway.

After having instantly forwarded the link

to other friends, she discovers a whole

playlist of funny ideas how to deal with

waste and finally GWI - the playlist cura-

tor – catches her curiousity. While explor-

ing the various ideas on the map, she re-

alizes how easy it can be to make a small

but significant difference in the reason-

able handling of waste. She also starts

remembering her last year's trip to Asia,

where she saw a very pragmatic approach

of recycling old bottles by using them to

build river rafts and asks herself: “Seems

like this idea isn’t in here yet. I could

submit this case…”

We are not just starry-eyed idealists.

We believe, if we are successful, we could …

Find ways to put social peer pressure on people by building on positivism

and promising opportunities to solve our global (waste) problems.

Broaden people's perception of waste as a valuable commodity and re-

enforce cross-cultural collaboration from bottom-up.

Raise awareness and make ideas visible that otherwise would have been

overlooked.

Connect people who make those ideas and their derivatives come true.

Facilitate the transfer, adaption and improvement of grassroots and high-

tech waste ideas around the world.

Inspire the adapted replication of complex and successful technical or social

innovation models for akin but different contexts.

Provide an open research platform that takes up on cultural practices,

geographical conditions and other frequently overlooked variables, that

often prevent the assertive implementation of (waste) innovations.

Help comparing, discussing and benchmarking existing solutions against

each other for their viability within certain problem contexts.

observe and support potential business opportunities all over the world –

especially in developing countries.

Catalyze a new dimension of social entrepreneurship.

milestone VisionTo begin the development of the framework and build first pro-totype iterations in order to feed the database with our collected ideas and run the first usability tests.

Implementation StepsSecure the funding for the run-ning IT costs and other project costs. Initiate an Open Source project with some handpicked lead system engineers and inter-face designers, while beginning to establish a personal network of first possible beta users and (media and PR) disseminators.

milestone VisionTo build up a community of 20.000 people via a social web campaign.

Implementation StepsWhile inviting the beta us-ers we'll execute a large-scaled social web campaign worldwide and a PR campaign in Germany (and other countries via our dis-seminators).

milestone VisionTo build an offline community of many people and organisations (e.g. NGO's, NPO's, develop-ment aid programmes, etc.) that spreads our existing ideas and brings in new ones - especially in/from countries, where internet access is only partially available.

Implementation StepsEstablishment of collaborations and partnerships with respective organisations via roadshows, our disseminators, the community etc.

milestone VisionTo observe in what way people use our tool and deduce busi-ness models that emerge out of possible scope creeps. (Scenario: To offer premium access or sub-scriptions to professional re-search tools and advanced filter systems on our platform, so that we can serve as a business intel-ligence provider.)

Implementation StepsWe intentionally don't know yet.
