How your toothbrush became a part of the ecological crisis
At first, years ago, it was just an occasional piece of plastic trash that Kahi Pacarro, the founder of Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii, picked up on the beach cleanups he organized around the state. A straw here, a takeout container there. But one day Pacarro spotted something particularly surprising in the beach detritus: a toothbrush.
Nowadays, during such activities, it's quite common to find dozens of toothbrushes on the beach.
We are facing two noteworthy facts:
- According to National Geographic, 99% of all toothbrushes worldwide are made of plastic. The average person uses around 300 plastic toothbrushes over their lifetime.
- If everyone worldwide replaced their toothbrush 3-4 times a year as recommended, approximately 23 billion toothbrushes would be discarded annually.
The more we ponder this issue, the nearer we feel to desiring change and adopting an eco-friendlier approach.
A plastic-free future?
“It’s quite remarkable, actually, that the design of the toothbrush has stayed so similar throughout the years,” says Charlotte Fiell, a design historian from the U.K. “Basically, the function hasn’t changed, has it?”
This question urges us to reassess our daily routines and pursue an ideal solution that combines perfect functionality with eco-friendly principles.
And here it is:
