Fashion.at tip inspired by the motto 'Back to climate strategies, back to school': MiquelRius X Ecoalf stationery range made from recycled materials makes aware that there is no planet B

Currently, the world appears like a construction site where governments worldwide are working together to fix the most important problems in quasi 'repair areas' such as the health field (Covid-19, Delta, Lambda,...) or the migration zone (Afghanistan, Syria,...). In Austria, the health related problems are conquered with free and easily accessible vaccination boxes which have popped up during the last weeks all over the country. The migration and asylum quotas are currently once again a topic and heavily discussed in Europe. Austria is one of the countries with the highest number of refugees measured in proportion to the population; for example, around 45.000 Afghan refugees are located currently in Austria; most of them in Vienna. But activities, strategies for protecting the environment or for providing updated education programmes for children shouldn't be disregarded even when the other problems seem from time to time not resolvable. Some 'construction ideas' for several groups such as the anti-vaxxers (and their right to refuse a vaccination), other countries and their populations (like we all experienced in Afghanistan) will never become accepted or sustainable, in the meaning of workable.

Back to climate strategies, back to school. What seems in relation to the pandemic and the worldwide migration movements a minor problem can help to build a better future. We know that climate change causes migration movements and that anti-vaxxers belong statistically (in Vienna) rather to groups with low education level.

Fashion.at searched through the latest press releases concerning school material for children and found the information about the collaborative collection of practical notebooks and pencil cases made from recycled materials by stationery goods producer MiquelRius designed by recycling specialist Ecoalf with the writing of the brand's signature slogan which is set as a reminder that there is no planet B.

Images: The picture shows a selection from the MiquelRius X Ecoalf stationery range of notebooks A4, 120 pages and pencil cases in two sizes in muted and bright colors with the writing 'Because There Is No Planet B'. It's announced that the range made from shredded old paper and 100 % recycled nylon fabric is available from 1 September 2021 at ecoalf.com and Ecoalf stores.
