EndPlasticPollution Campaign

In May 2019, we saved 307 Plastic Bottles that were destined for the landfills from the Environment.

The plastic bottles were collected from Mrs Leinyuy Christina's Residence by @mr-greens and we are going to upcycle them into;

1. UPB Vertical Gardens

2. UPB Tree Nursery Pots

3. or use them for our Giant Plastic Bottle Project

The plastic bottles were packed in 4 Big Bags and carried by @mr-greens in his Mitsubishi Mini Pajero. The 307 Plastic bottles come to add to the 358 Plastic bottles we saved from the environment in April 2019: https://steemit.com/tribesteemup/@thegreens/endplasticpollution-campaign-or-we-saved-157-plastic-bottles-from-the-environment-today-17th-march-2019
