Save the Duck to safeguard the ecosystem
Save the Duck and Alex Bellini together to safeguard the ecosystem
The Italian explorer will navigate the 10 rivers of the planet most polluted by plastic and Save The Duck just becomes partner of the project. The Italian company demonstrates its commitment to the environment also with the SS2020 collection and the choice of fabrics made with recycled materials.
Save The Duck, an animal-friendly Italian company, stands out once again for its sustainable choices aimed at protecting our planet and for its commitment to guide consumers, not only those who are more attentive to green issues, towards an increasingly sustainable fashion.
The most important evidence of this production process is represented by the choice of fabrics and padding used to make the garments of the 100% animal free brand such as Recycled Plumtech: a wadding made of polyester fibers entirely from recycled material, including plastic bottles used to make the garments of the Recycled collection, marked by the green and white logo; while the garments of the Ocean is my Home collection, marked by the blue and white logo, are made of 100% recycled nylon fabric made from recycled fishing nets and other recycled materials.
Raising people’s awareness of the protection and cleanliness of our ecosystem also reflects the partnership of the “10 Rivers 1 Ocean” project by explorer Alex Bellini, who sails the 10 most plastic-polluted rivers in the world. The journey began in March 2019 with the navigation of the Ganges and in November 2019 the Pearl River in China. The explorer and environmental explorer sails aboard boats each time created with waste material and assembled on site to transfer to us the testimony of life around and in the waters, people’s relationships with the same rivers, good and bad habits.
Alex, in July 2019, reached the core of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a mass of plastic waste accumulated in the sub-tropical oceanic vortex of the Pacific Ocean: it is about 80 thousand tons of debris, which year after year continues to grow dramatically, fed by the 10 most polluted plastic rivers in the world.
The aim of this journey was born with the intent to tell an emergency situation, offering us the opportunity to expand our knowledge, understand what are the impassable limits and what solutions are available; but it is also a path to inspire a new sense of understanding and respect universally shared for a threatened and delicate environment: our waterways.
