I think it‘s important to talk and act more on sustainability in community level, such as traditional markets or slum area. Anyone know any organization who take initiation on that anyway?

I read that Indonesia is planning to open SEVERAL waste-to-energy facilities, and I have a HUGE dilemma over this. Some say low recycling rates should be a major reason why we should go forward with this plan, but at the same time, we can't deny these facilities release toxic chemicals and don't rea

Hey guys, I'd like to explore vegetarian/vegan food in Jakarta, any recommendations?😁

Maybe it will make us closer to the orang-utans.

Despite the environmental consequences, I personally don't think there's any harm in getting takeout, and getting about 3 layers of plastic (and a zip-tie!) along with your order. Plastic waste just isn't the biggest problem in the world right now. However, it is a bit of a dilemma when you have abo

Hello, everyone! I want to ask how hard is it to find an eco/environment community (which have offline activity preferably) around your area? I want to know if every city have at least one? I see so much people on the internet already have awareness of the issue but they reluctant to act because th

Hi guys. I heard about fast fashion brands like H&M are trying to go sustainable. But, their fast fashion culture still causes tons of waste despite their efforts. So, can fast fashion really be sustainable? #fashion #sustainable #english @Project Planet ID

Hi guys. Recently, i heard about microplastics being one of the most polluting agent in the ocean. But, I'm not sure what is it and why is it harmful. What do you guys think? #ocean #microplastics #english@Project Planet ID

Hello, Project Planet Fellows! I've been thinking of becoming a vegan/vegetarian lately, but sometimes I find healthy foods (including vegan foods) are far more expensive than cooked foods that contain meat. What do you guys think? All kinds of opinions are welcome here!😊 P.S : Thanks for the o

Gotta say, I LOVEEE your deforestation series! It makes me truly realize just how much our lifestyle is causing serious harm to our rainforests and wildlife, especially our dependence on palm oil. One quick question, though: do we have any other alternatives that are more sustainable? Thanks a bunch

I'm trying to reduce glass waste by donating it to waste banks. I'm not too sure how the process works, though! Can anyone help me out? #WasteBank #DonatingTrash

Hey Project Planet community! I've been slowly changing my lifestyle to pescatarian a couple days a week and now to vegetarian a couple days a week. I know that going vegan is one of the most important ways to save the environment because it reduces our carbon footprint and helps conserve water. Bu
