This presentation covers a wide range of upcycling and urban farming success stories which might spur viewers into action. Creating an EcoBrick project or campaign can have a big impact within a community and on a particular environment. But there are many considerations that need to be made before jumping into the construction phase. In this presentation Ian speaks about the learnings he’s gathered over the last 7 years across a variety of different EcoBrick projects. From raised vegetable gardens and furniture pieces to a skateboard ramp and even a preschool campus.
