Project Title: How Green is Green?
Designer Bio:
My name is Emma Levine, and I am from Pittsburgh, PA. I am graduating from Syracuse with a major in Industrial and Interaction Design. I am passionate about design, sustainability and finding creative solutions to the problems we face today. My main interests are packaging design, UX/UI, and 3D product modeling.
Project Description:
Plastic pollution remains a pervasive issue in our oceans, with microplastics, particles measuring 5mm or smaller, comprising a staggering 90% of oceanic plastic. Alarmingly, personal care and cosmetic companies intentionally add microplastics into their products as exfoliants or filler ingredients.
Awareness of this problem is lacking among the general public. How Green is Green is dedicated to bridging this knowledge gap by empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their purchases and encouraging them to make more sustainable choices.
