 Welcome to our fifth monthly news update, you know how this goes by now It's gonna be super quick rough and unpolished, but we don't want to lose too much time in this video So I hope it's all clear So as you have seen in last month's update We went to Kenya to set up this precious plastic workspace in this old chicken shed And we had just two weeks to do it But we didn't really know what to expect of the chicken shed because we had some pictures But not all the details and we actually spent quite some time renovating that building But when we came back it felt kind of inefficient spending most of our time on that So we started rethinking a new way of setting up these workspaces What we're getting? Yo, we're doing some shopping containers today Container shopping Currently in the harbor of Rotterdam in the Netherlands where all the containers are being shipped And they have plenty of them around And it's kind of impressive knowing that they're all based on a standardized measurement So all these shipping containers are the same around the world So if you have the drawings of one you have drawings for all of them Which is kind of a good starting point if you want to set up in the universal workspace So we bought one of these containers and had it shipped to our workspace But our parking lot is a bit tight. I mean it's made for cars not for containers So the truck driver had very little space to maneuver and get it in As a start the fence was super tight He only had a few centimeters left and right to get in then he had a fence at the back Which he cannot hit then there was a car in the way and We wanted the container to be dropped exactly here like nice in a horizontal line This looks like we're so good plastic, isn't it? I'm going to often see the bottom of the container I don't know how but he managed to get that done and I was impressed So our plan is to squeeze this whole workshop inside the container so you can just put it somewhere and start recycling So we got started on that In between I went to New York for World Ocean Day currently at the United Nations headquarter and today is world ocean day And there's a big UN conference in this big-ass building with a lot of people in suits Talking about plastic the oceans problems and there is some plastic All right, let's go in This place looks like a giant Star Wars movie set This conference was all about the oceans and together with our friends from Parley We discussed what the role of plastic is in this problem and in evening We did a run for the oceans with Adidas on my fake night shoes, which actually officially died now So I'm gonna make a video about the whole process for you guys and update it soon You know what? Within a week meanwhile Jerry went to the Adidas headquarters in Germany to show the people who work there what you can do With plastic and that you can recycle it on the spot into something new I put a sticker on the Golden Gate Bridge. The founder could have a fresh plastic bowl So Kinoa Moon Gandalf sent me your address. I'll send you a ball and when we came back from Kenya We had an empty suitcase because we delivered to starter kits So we filled it up with 23 kilogram of freshly picked avocados from the tree and we officially finished them all this month So that's news I got nominated for the border session award won the creative hero award and we are finalists for the index award June is a good month for awards. So this is all the stuff. We've been doing this month But here we have our news from the community So we've seen a lot of people over the world making these top printing crap warnings I hope that's gonna help We got some pictures from our team in Kenya making balls and teaching kids And we also share the story behind this whole project the ups and downs Farah or 360 from Belgium is running precious plastic in cowlac Cowlac, I don't know. It's somewhere in Senegal in Africa and the melt collector from Canada It's making some nice jewelry items with their recycled plastic Making it really more precious. It's cool. All right. So that's all the news for June We'll see you next month. We actually have an interesting project coming up in a big store in Amsterdam So stay tuned for that. It's gonna be cool And thanks again for watching and for supporting on patreon if you do because again without you We wouldn't be able to do all of this. So thanks
