The motivation behind this blog post: I want to help preserve the beautiful nature of Bali. April 2013, I spent a month there during my yoga teacher training and talked to the indigenous people. I saw all the plastic lying around on the island and asked them if they have a strategy for that.
They say we can not imagine how much waste and plastic young kids from Bali are collecting and putting away from dumpsters. Without these volunteers Bali would not even have a chance. People dump their waste in a big valley, there is no measure or enforcement, to stop them from doing this at the moment. There needs to be a solution on a global scale, to reform the way recycling is currently done in Bali. That valley needs to be cleaned out, so the Earth and nature can live and breath again. This was in Candidasa, a little town close to Ubud, but some more touristy areas, such as Kuta, the surf paradise are even more polluted.
