Trash It
Pakistan
TrashIt encourages people to reconsider lifestyle habits influenced by production and consumption trends, and to shift towards sustainable living. They empower communities and individuals to reduce their carbon footprint, acting as the eco-warriors in a system that has just not prioritized sustainability yet. Their services range from recycling and composting, to the sale of zero-waste items and compost (made from organic matter that would otherwise be rotting in the landfill), to at-home solutions that build a connection with sustainable living. Their Trash It Eco Store offers a variety of eco-friendly alternative products, gardening essentials and gifts that promote a low impact, zero waste lifestyle. The company also collects waste and turns it into compost and sells to consumers. The company has won several startup competitions and has also been the runner-up several times.
