By 2018, 75% of the Earth had already been damaged by humans. By 2050, only 10% is expected to remain intact. Now is the time to act: reduce, reuse, recycle. Now.
Two necklaces in reused materials reify the human impact on Earth through their footprint (or fingerprint!). The third one leaves us with the hope that immediate action can be taken by all of us. That way we can celebrate Nature again in full.
