We collected over 200 Plastic Bottles from the community today
The Plastic Bottle Recycling Project
Today, @mr-greens, Merilyn and Dorine visited the Ntabessi neigborhood were they collected over 200 plastic bottles which were initially destined for the landfill.
During their collection, they were able to sensitize memebers of the community to #StopPlasticPollution and among the community members was Mrs. Shey Julius who pledged to reduce her plastic bottles footprint as well as donate all her plastic bottles to @thegreens.
These plastic bottles will be upcycled next week to produce the UPB Tree Nursery Pots which will be used to nurse 100,000 Trees this year, as part of @TheGreens' One Million Trees Project.

Thanks @tibfox!
This is AWESOME @thegreens. The steady collection-sensitizing-education is the ONLY way. I'm thinking @mr-greens needs one of his 77 days to be a plastic crown made with 7 bottles - cos he is the undisputed KING of Stop Plastic Pollution! Kudos and gratitude.

Great project and well done! I also collect garbage around my home and I'm getting crazy when I see people throwing it away.
Keep doing great job! Thank you for sharing and have a lovely week!
That's an amazing initiative you are doing @thegreens. Plastic is one of the major source of pollution by putting it to good use you are really making a difference to your place. Thank you for your valuable contribution to the society.
