Have you heard of The Pebble dinner set released by American singer Pharrell Williams?
As plastic pollution continues to increase, the use of single-use plastics has also risen alongside the coronavirus. So, how can we prevent environmental pollution while plastic pollution, one of the causes of the climate crisis, is on the rise?
As a precaution, we can carry our own cutlery set when dining out during the pandemic. How? American singer Pharrell Williams has a solution for this. The mobile dining set, which includes a fork, knife, spoon, straw, and chopsticks made from recycled CDs and recycled food packaging, is the result of a collaboration between Williams' creative brand 'I am Other' and Pentatonic, which produces objects for a circular economy. Pentatonic will transform the materials used in the product into another product for a complete zero-waste cycle. This way, excessive plastic use can be prevented.
Pentatonic also has notable achievements. The company is one of the world's leading circular economy companies focused on eliminating the concept of "single-use." As an independent brand, it designs and produces high-quality products in collaboration with a wide range of partners, including Starbucks, Snarkitecture, Burger King, New Era, and The Science Museum.
