An exhibition to change the way we look at our waste production and give us reasons to hope

- NOTE : the ticket gives access to the exhibitions on levels 1 and 2, the Argonaute and the planetarium
- The exhibition invites us, with pedagogy and without feeling guilty, to become aware of the impact of our waste on the planet. Every year, more than 2 billion tons of litter are produced worldwide
- Nature and people are poisoned by the production and destruction of electronic components and plastics
- So, to consume differently, we need to change our consumption habits: upcycling, recycling and repair workshop…
- This exhibition shows us that solutions exist to transform them with surprising and ingenious initiatives. Any examples? the fish bones that become biodegradable plastic, the seaweed bricks for the habitat, the kelp suits, the meal tray made of rice seeds and coffee seeds… Yes, ingenuity has no limits!
- Thank you to all these young engineers and designers who offer us reasons to hope!
- A new generation of scientists and engineers are trying to recycle our waste into a sustainable raw material. Waste has potential and value
- Far from the old-fashioned image of recycled products, young designers are finding solutions to reconcile aesthetics and ethics
- The exhibition is itself eco-designed: all the objects presented have travelled only by sea and land because this exhibition was set up in London and Hong Kong before arriving in Paris
- The furniture used for the presentation is taken from the scenography of previous exhibitions
