Per capita consumption in the world&#8217;s second largest country is not yet in danger.

It is encouraging that more and more people are aware that we must ensure that we use these raw materials more economically. In this way we can ensure that the overshoot day is moved further in time, in other words: #MoveTheDate<\/p>\n<h5>Ecowings contribution<\/h5>\n<p>In our view, reusing materials is the best way to combat depletion of the earth. At Ecowings we remove the inner tubes of trucks from the waste stream. In this way we use the raw materials that are already there and give them a second life.
