Eye on the Earth could align with a global company, such as Ikea to develop a strategy that would share a contribution of sales of the product to research and implementation of Eye on the Earth (for example 5c per dollar sold AUD). Seeing as Ikea were the first company to bring in energy efficient light bulbs in their stores, this alliance will include the development of a product, such as a lamp, that is biodegradable, environmentally friendly and efficient. This money will be put into further research and environmental initiatives for the future and being able to share environmental knowledge on a global scale.
