Canadian businessman Robert Pizzo is tired of having plastic bottles everywhere, and he has devised a new way to reuse them. So, he moved to Buccas del Toro, Panama, where he started to build a plastic bottle village. The main objective of building this village is to reduce plastic waste that pollutes the environment, and to re-use the plastic by integrating it into the construction process.
What may not look very nice during construction actually ends up being a beautiful house many of us like to live in. But building homes is not the only thing that is important to this initiative. Its main objective is to raise awareness of the tragic situation of our planet and the importance of reducing plastic waste . The initiative's website also analyzes the history of plastic waste worldwide, and what events throughout history have had the greatest impact on the plastic pollution we are currently facing.
There are many wonderful initiatives around the world that people have adopted to stop the catastrophic environmental effects on the planet, from protecting animals from extinction to water and air pollution. We have certainly caused great chaos on this planet, and it is important to look for new and innovative ways to correct the damage that has occurred. So, no wonder, once someone comes up with a great idea that is environmentally friendly, it only calls for encouragement and support.
