Plastic is precious ! We can stop with landfills !

We are so blessed to be part of such incredible network where people want to help us in our mission here, we begun the recycling mission with the goal to help our community to recycle more than that, transform the "non recyclable" into building materials.

When some friends heard that, they came in our community and helped us build an Ubuntu Machine.

If you don't know about it, I strongly invite you to discover this Youtube video from the people that invented it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wen9Bi1-Ol4

This Technology is a powerful, simple and efficient solution to avoid giving our trash away, were it ends up in landfills in many countries of this world.

Plastic is precious ! So we should not just throw it away, if we don't know what to do with it yet, in the future we will know, for now the best is to compact it properly, and store it.

And the best way to store it is to build with it !

Again I Invite you to look at the possibilities here : https://plan4plastic.org/methods/ecobales/

Having this machine in our village is a game changer for us that want to care for the earth, we are constantly teaching more people how they can process their plastic and turn them into something valuable.

We are shifting the old consciousness, by providing a simple and accessible solution. People can feel the inner change, maybe for the first time in their lives, they have the choice to make the change !

We are here to inspire people to embrace their waste, and be creative with it, instead of getting rid of it, and this news is spreading in our local area ! Once people know that it is possible, they can't forget about it.

See how it works: It's very simple, 2 sacs filled with Clean and Dry soft plastic become a compact building block:

Many people come to learn how to do it, here a friend covered her block with a green fabric to make a comfortable seat:

When we will have enough of them, we will demonstrate how to build walls with these blocks.

This information is very precious to us, and we wish that many communities will build an Ubuntu Machine and get started with transforming the so called "non recyclable".
