Proud to introduce The Lost Camel: An Award-Winning, Life Size 3D Printed Camel, Sculpture by Proto21, Purpose of Emirates Development Bank and Living Room MENA, this stunning 3D printed masterpiece aims to shed light on a pressing environmental issue. In the vast desert, camels face a silent threat i.e. plastic pollution. Left behind by campers, plastic waste becomes an unintended meal for these majestic creatures.
Tragically, ingestion of plastic leads to devastating consequences, from blockages and internal infections to starvation and death. Shockingly, calcified plastic weighing up to 52 kg has been found in some camels’ stomachs.
