Argentina's natural resources are exhausted today. From now on, the country is using more natural resources than it can regenerate in one year.
A factor that is destroying natural resources is, e.g., illegal deforestation which is still a big issue in Argentina.

#GenerationShare

[MAKE SMTHNG @MSmthng]

The #SharingEconomy is a socio-economic system built around the sharing of human and physical resources such as property, knowledge, skills, food, goods and time.
In this new economy, three types of value are essential: economic, social and environmental.

#SkillSharing is an amazing way to get together with open-minded people while being creative and learning new things. That's what the MAKE SMTHNG community is about: sharing our skills and inspire each other to create something with our own hands.

Did you know that car sharing could reduce greenhouse gases by 62% and save 4.2 million premature deaths caused by polluted air per year?
Also bike sharing could reduce CO2 emissions and healthcare costs drastically.

By not throwing away but sharing the 1.3 billion tons of food that is wasted each year, we could feed 10 billion people worldwide. We could end world hunger and save more than 36 million deaths per year.

No, this isn't Photoshop. This is the Arctic right now.

Sea ice levels over great swathes of the Arctic ocean are at historic lows (in the 40-year-long satellite record) for this time of year.

We are all #different. But we're here #together and we're sharing a #future together. So, don't close your eyes from different opinions and ways of thinking. You don't need to agree to them - but accept them.
Let's create a future that is worth living together! #MakeChangeNow

#OvershootDay in the world's fabric: China

Even though exports and imports are considered in the country-specific global footprints, we want to create awareness for China being blamed for cheap and low-quality products - it's your products that are produced there! #MakeChangeNow

#ZeroWaste: our maker Mariella did these Tawashi sponges. Tawashi sponges are not thrown away! They are washable and can be reused. Nature will thank you afterwards!

The Tawashi sponge for the dishes is made from hemp and the one for the body is made from cotton.

The Bureau of Linguistic Reality describes morbique as "the morbid desire to travel to places to experience them before they are radically altered by climate change [...]. However, getting to those places contributes to the climate crisis and thus, to their destruction.

#BeachVibes: Miranda created these hand-made coral-inspired earrings.
Coral reefs are threatened by global warming. The reefs' ecosystems are very important for other marine life. It will have fatal consequences for all life under water if the corals keep on bleaching and dying.

#OvershootDay in paradise! The Bahamas run out of their natural resources today.

Reefs are affected by coral bleaching due to global warming, cruises cause tremendous damages for the environment and building hotel resorts destroys natural resources of inhabitants.
