The Life of a Toothbrush

Every plastic toothbrush ever created still exists since their invention in the 1930's. Isn't that mind-boggling? 

Do you know how many toothbrushes are thrown out annually? It's a small change that we can all make to help the environment from www.goingzerowaste.com

The average American will throw away 300 toothbrushes in their lifetime. According to our current populous, that's over 90 billion toothbrushes. 

With one simple switch, you can avoid contributing to that statistic. 

I am really good friends with the family who created Brush with Bamboo. I met Ro when I spoke at the Zero Waste Youth Convergence earlier this year. We've worked together on a couple of projects, but this one was the most fun! 

I present to you a short film about the life of a toothbrush. 

I had so much fun shooting this film with them! If you enjoyed this video, share it with someone you think would like it too. 

Together we can stop plastic toothbrushes. ;)
