Project to save the environment with bins made out of recycled wheels

¡Hello! Greetings from Medellin!, Colombia !

My name is Maria Paulina, I want to raise funds for my project PLANETA RECICLAJE (Recycled planet), to help the environment with recycling bins made out of old wheels to recycle plastic.

Salving the world with bins.

Our goal is to contribute to improve the environment that surrounds us by recycling plastic bottles and reusable waste, giving the planet we inhabit a necessary respite, where plastic and various reusable materials serve as construction materials, avoiding the destructions of thousands of trees, in addition to providing opportunities for changing the lives of our collaborators, waste pickers and their families, preventing them from falling into situations such as drug addiction and giving them an improvement in the quality of life. With this project we want to raise money to make the bins and be able to donate them to businesses, shops and supermarkets within the city.

Our goal with recycled planet

With the plastic we collect, we are preventing the deforestation from spreading, building plastic wood and also preventing plastic from reaching rivers and these on their way from reaching seas and oceans, affecting the great diversity of animals, since plastic It is one of the slowest components to degrade, taking up to 450 years. Affecting miles of lives that inhabit the oceans, seas and rivers.

Through the creation of value chains that allow citizens, collaborators and recyclers to be impacted directly or indirectly by actions that protect the environment, under the reuse of recyclable elements . 

We have started the project by ourselves and from our own pocket, but the plan is to make this project reach other parts of the world, save seas and oceans from our home, avoid plastic pollution. From the closest places such as neighborhood stores and supermarkets. The money raised is to make the bins, and to be able to donate them to the sites and that they have no excuse for not knowing or not being able to recycle because they do not have a bin or whoever separates the waste from them.

Every cent counts! Each action can make great difference!
