The artists expresses his concern about the unsustainable trends in the global production and consumption patterns. Plastics cannot be processed by the Earth's ecosystems and its use should be limited to durable goods, such as computers, which last for several years. On the other hand, the use of plastics in packaging, which is thrown away immediately after use, should be avoided at all cost. A lot of the plastics ends up in the Oceans destroying the food chains and causing damage. New completely biodegradable materials urgently need to be developed to reverse the dangerous trend. The artist is arguing for the International Plastics Convention and organizes the Oxford Summer and Winter Schools in Ecological Economics, which bring together leading scholars, policy makers and practitioners, PhD students and business representatives to discuss new approaches to sustainability and the green economy.
