Sofia Wright

Hi! I’m Sofia Wright and currently I live in North West England. I’m 15 years old and I study biology, psychology and English language. Some of my hobbies include horse riding, competitive swimming and skiing. I was born in London, but I’ve lived in Abu Dhabi for 10 years which has broadened my perspective on sustainable solutions globally, and contributed towards a fervor for finding scientific solutions to these issues which can make the world a safer and cleaner place for everyone.

Statistics show that China is the global largest producer and distributor of textiles which ( as of 2019) is estimated at 267 billion dollars and releases micro plastic fibres, heavy metals and other harmful environmental pollutants into water bodies.

This is what I think is one of the solutions for a sustainable future:

My product is designed to combat water pollution from household waste water Due to LIC ' s being the largest source of these, industrial by-products such as charcoal can be used which are easily accessible.
