Daniel, Gittemary, and Rob are activists who have opted for a zero-waste lifestyle. Thanks to social networks, they inspire others to also become interested in a greener approach to life. "Waste-free Daniel" works in New York as a designer who has built an original brand on sustainable fashion. Gittemary lives in Aalborg, Denmark, and in her entertaining videos, she shares recipes on how to do without the use of plastics and how to reduce waste overall. Rob from Orlando, USA, teaches gardening and lives in a house he has built from leftover materials. He uses and lives almost exclusively on what he grows in a rented garden. By that, he proves that bartering and cooperation can lead to a more responsible lifestyle that will not contribute to the destruction of our planet.
