I am entering the stellar builder challenge. Note that everyone so far has only received lumes as a grant to do their project in the Technology side of things.
There is not even a category for my submission however Lindsey the lawyer for Stellar who I met at a stellar meet up in Singapore thought my idea worthy of a submission.
Stellar Economy is a growing global alliance of individuals, organisation’s, businesses, and policymakers working towards a world free of plastic pollution and its toxic impacts on humans, animals, waterways and oceans that negatively affect our environment.
Stellar Economy platform is designed to be open and accessible to everyone. This document outlines the longterm goals of the Stellar Economy.
Mission
The mission of the Stellar Economy (SE) is to redefine profit and establish a Profit for All platform that promotes global awareness to the issues of plastic pollution. SE will offer very viable solutions to support a healthier planet and reduce the damaging impact that plastic products can have on our environment. SE will accomplish this by expanding worldwide access to educational ideas, along with the manufacturing and sale of fair trade products such as Reusable straws, utensils and bags designed to reduce unnecessary plastic use.
SE’s vision is an open and affordable production design system where people of all income levels can access fair trade eco products with our BOWGO buy one we gift one pay it forward model. The Stellar Economy product line’s will follow the philosophy of zero waste which encourages the redesign of resource life cycles so product materials are reused and / or Biodegradable. The products will have the Stellar Economy logo and we will also offer a pay it forward Profit for All manufacturing facilities for private label production to aid in the development and maintenance of strong corporate alliances.
