Recycling glass and plastic into bricks!

One more experiment completed: bricks with 100% of the recycled glass sand and addition of the shredded plastic  PET bottle.

Recycle and Reuse: a practical way to sequester CO2 that could be released from plastic in the landfill and would enter the ocean in the form of microplastics.

 

The glass bottles were recycled into sand in the eco-center of Rincao and the plastic bottles were shredded and recycled in the eco-center of Sao Francisco. 

 

Once again big thanks to the company #Soplacas in Cabo Verde for support in producing the bricks!
