Wij zijn Fair Resource Foundation
We believe in a world without disposables
We use too many things and we throw them away too quickly
Why is there so much plastic and so little attention paid to the dangers to our health? Why is there so much clothing that is discarded so quickly? Why are so many appliances irreparable? Why do we accept this throwaway economy?
“People must be made to want new things, even before the old ones have been consumed”
— A banker in 1927
Over the past 100 years, we have built an economy that has now become a threat to our environment, our health and, ultimately, our prosperity.
We do not become happier from more things
Happiness comes from our friendships, health and freedom. But our dependence on more and increasingly cheaper things does not make us freer, threatens our health and often forms an obstacle to human contact. We can become happier with fewer things.
Away with the throwaway economy
Long live the renewable economy
Continuing on the current path is unthinkable. A path that leads to an uninhabitable planet, depletion of our natural resources. In a renewable economy, without waste and squandering, there is ENOUGH for everyone.
