Reuse of plastic soda & water bottles part 1
Over the past few days, Lightbulbproject has been figuring out how to re-use plastic soda or water bottles, ranging from 500ml to 1 litre and even 1.5 litre plastic bottles.
Such waste and there is no nearby recycling plant… If we can’t recycle then, let’s give them a new secondary use !
so the next few weeks will bring a new life use for the plastic bottles. If YOU want to contribute in any way, please leave a comment & Lightbulbproject might just look into it.
and .. NO, the single use for those plastic bottle FUN BOAT races don’t count !
Ok.
Re-Use No.1
SAVE-WATER-Whilst-You-Flush Bottle
Fill a 500 mL plastic bottle with water and place it in your toilet tank. This will save you 500 mL every flush, and over a year this is significant. Imagine you use your toilet just two times a day (a highly conservative estimate); you would save a litre a day and that’s 365 litres a year
I believe there is a recycling plant but you have to find their bins scattered around Brunei. Check my compilation at the following URL: http://brunei.thewheatfield.org/recycling/
You may also be interested is using plastic bottles used as light bulbs (in day time). Very cool idea and implementation illustrated in the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zMAWztZ6TI
