## What is it?
[Precious Noggles](https://www.preciousplastic.com/noggles), created from a [proposal approved by Nouns DCS](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ILFm8-OjhbkcvmbVbh7Zitq94T__jBch4J4zz1iXjs0/edit?usp=sharing), aims to connect the Nouns community with [Precious Plastic](https://www.instagram.com/realpreciousplastic/) community, **both CC0 brands** focused on innovation and sustainability. After the success of the first initiative, [Precious Noggles](https://warpcast.com/preciousnoggles) is launching a more ambitious project: a mobile clinic equipped with a recycling station capable of producing eyeglass frames made from recycled plastic. The long-term goal of this project is to assist 15,000 vulnerable children in Rio de Janeiro. According to the Brazilian Council of Ophthalmology (CBO), about 10% of elementary school students need glasses, but 80% of school-age children have never had an eye exam. In addition, the initiative will promote education about recycling and sustainability, creating a positive impact on socially vulnerable communities.
I, [Marinioac](https://x.com/marinioac), founder of [Precious Noggles](http://x.com/preciousnoggles), along with [Ilustradora](https://x.com/ilustradoraeth), the [NGO Visão do Bem](https://www.instagram.com/socialvisaodobem), [Casa Plástica](https://www.instagram.com/projetocasaplastica/), [Precious Plastic Cotia](https://www.instagram.com/preciousplastic.cotiabr/), [Easymoulds](https://www.instagram.com/easymoulds/), [Virei Notícia](https://www.instagram.com/vireinoticia/), and [Berro.inc](http://berro.inc/), are committed to carrying out a creative and high-impact project, fully aligned with the values of the Nouns community. Our focus is on promoting education, recycling, inclusion, accessibility, and health, while also aiming for a global reach. The proposal seeks to collaborate with open recycling projects, enabling the Precious Plastic community to replicate these initiatives worldwide, thereby amplifying the impact of Nouns.
### Short-term Deliverables:
- Direct impact on 3,000 children from 10 NGOs in Rio de Janeiro.
- Exposure in major national and international media, along with a strategic presence in Web3 platforms and events, ensuring broad visibility and global impact.
- Release of mini-documentaries and generation of organic media content on the social channels of Good Noggles, Precious Noggles, and Precious Plastic, ensuring ongoing engagement and visibility throughout the project's development.
### Long-term Deliverables:
- A mobile clinic and recycling station with the Noggles permanently displayed, designed to serve 15,000 children annually across Brazil.
The children's eyeglass model will be licensed under [CC-BY-SA and globally replicated by the Precious Plastic community](https://community.preciousplastic.com/how-to/nouns-sunglasses-mould), promoting the Nouns brand and expanding its social and environmental impact worldwide.
## Why will Nouns benefit from this project?
This project aligns with Nouns' core values of innovation and sustainability while directly contributing to several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 5 (Gender Equality), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). In addition to making a tangible impact in vulnerable communities, the project will boost the visibility and value of the Nouns brand, attracting new members and investors by demonstrating a clear commitment to global social and environmental causes.
### Social and Environmental Impact Aligned with SDGs
**SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being):** Providing recycled eyeglasses to children directly improves their quality of life and academic performance, positively impacting the visual health of vulnerable populations. **SDG 4 (Quality Education):** The eyeglasses help children learn better, and the project also offers educational workshops on recycling and sustainability, further promoting learning and environmental awareness. **SDG 5 & 10 (Gender Equality & Reduced Inequalities):** The project ensures equal access to visual healthcare, regardless of gender or social background, contributing to the reduction of inequalities. **SDG 11 & 12 (Sustainable Cities & Communities & Responsible Consumption and Production):** The production of recycled plastic eyeglass frames encourages a circular economy and promotes sustainable consumption practices, establishing a globally replicable model.
### Brand Growth and Market Value
Beyond its social impact, the project strengthens the Nouns brand by replicating the model globally, with eyeglass frames featuring the Noggles and the inscriptions "Good Noggles by Nouns DAO" and "100% Recycled Plastic" on the temples. The children's eyeglasses, versatile for both prescription and sunglasses, enhance the project's relevance in various contexts. The replicability ensures ongoing, global visibility and value for the Nouns community.
### Long-term Impact – Mobile Clinic and Recycling Station
The mobile clinic, equipped to perform eye exams and outfitted with modular recycling machines, will have the capacity to serve 15,000 children annually across various regions of Brazil. The project merges visual health and environmental education while promoting the Nouns brand, with Noggles prominently displayed on the eyeglass frames and the sides of the clinic. Even with future sponsors, Noggles will remain visible, linking the brand to a lasting and global social impact.
### Strategic Media Exposure
The project will receive wide coverage from major media outlets such as Globo and CNN, ensuring broad visibility for the Nouns brand. A feature on Fantástico, Globo’s tv show, with an audience of 40 million viewers, will provide credibility and reach. In addition, mini-documentaries on social media and Web3 platforms like Instagram, Warpcast, and YouTube will keep the project in the spotlight, generating buzz and attracting new investors and members to Nouns.
### Attracting New Members and Investors
The global replicability of the project allows recycled plastic eyeglass frames to be produced anywhere in the world, spreading the Nouns brand to unexpected regions. This creates opportunities for new members to engage with the Nouns community, increasing its market value and cementing its reputation as a global brand with significant social impact.

- **Uniforms:** 20 noggles and vests for the team.
### Choice of Materials for the Glasses
This project uses recycled polypropylene (PP), commonly found in yogurt pots, bottle caps, and food trays. PP is lightweight, impact-resistant, and flexible, making it ideal for durable and comfortable frames. The use of recycled PP supports the circular economy, reducing plastic waste. Additionally, recycling allows for frames to be produced on demand, minimizing excess waste while letting children choose their preferred colors for personalization. This creates a more sustainable and inclusive process, ensuring each pair of glasses is unique and tailored to the child’s preferences.
The lenses will be supplied by EssilorLuxottica, a world leader in optical innovation, known for high-quality lenses and cutting-edge technology.
The glasses’ packaging will be made from recycled fabric, featuring personalized Noggles-branded cloths to encourage proper eyewear care and creativity. The OBE spring hinges ensure comfort and durability, extending the longevity of the frames.
### Mobile Clinic and Recycling Station
The mobile clinic, in addition to offering ophthalmological exams, will function as a sustainable production center, equipped with modular recycling machines to produce eyeglass frames on-site. This station will also host interactive recycling workshops with the children, creating an engaging and educational experience. In the short term, we aim to serve 3,000 children and distribute 1,000 pairs of glasses across 10 NGOs in Rio de Janeiro.
### Workshops
In the Casa Plástica workshop for Noggles do Bem: “PLASTIC: From Waste to Glasses,” selected communities will have the chance to participate in a fun, interactive 3-hour experience learning how discarded plastic from their own homes can be transformed into new products—including a pair of glasses!
The workshop begins with an introduction to the environmental impact of plastic waste and the importance of recycling. Following this, we will engage in a dynamic activity to identify different types of plastics commonly found in the market, especially those most used and frequently discarded. Next, children will observe firsthand how plastic is shredded and creatively repurposed. This hands-on activity aims to raise awareness in a playful and dynamic way, encouraging creativity and demonstrating how small changes, starting at home, can contribute to a much more sustainable future.
