Idea in Colombia
Elisah came up with the idea for the Zero Waste Tours in Colombia. She says on the website: “What should have been an idyllic trip to a remote beach turned out to be a shocking confrontation. No soft sand between the toes, but a layer of washed-up plastic.” Since then she has been organizing various activities, the Zero Waste Tour being one of them.
