Conscious management and waste management are now among the most important issues discussed in many areas of life, including the architecture.

The creators of the presentation „Let’s talk about garbage”, Hugon Kowalski and Marcin Szczelina, argue that ecology and design go hand in hand. Overproduction of waste is a global problem faced by all the countries in the world. A modern solution for the reduction the waste generated by consumer lifestyles is recycling. “Let’s talk about garbage” attempts to find new alternative strategies in the fight against the enormous amount of waste flowing into our cities. It seems to be our only hope in slowing down the process of littering the planet.

Littering is expressed not only through the over-production of garbage but also the emission of harmful substances into the environment (air, water, soil) and the space in which we live.

The presentation in the Muzeum Śląskie takes place at the moment when Katowice hosts the COP24 Climate Summit. It is a good time to talk about such important issues as the quality of urban space and its impact on our planet and ourselves.
