How We Empower Waste Reclamation for Communities
Our Goals
•Identify systemic breakdowns and bottlenecks in current reclamation practices, development of community solutions and participation
•Organize and implement street and waterfront cleanups, sorting out plastic waste and reclaiming it
•Research and development of new processes dealing with plastics which are not easily recycled within the current system (i.e. EPS, EPE, films, LDPE)
•Educational activities centered around reclamation of plastic waste, information about plastics and uses, workshops for individuals and organizations.
•Examine and research local policies to facilitate efforts for positive progress in plastics reclamation (i.e.cost of licensing, requirements to collect and process legally, reclamation business development)
•Facilitate and share circular processes that utilize waste as a raw material in the arts, design, and construction
•Develop network of corporate, municipal, and individual partners
•Sales of cleaned, sorted bulk plastics in bulk
•Sales of sorted, shredded plastic for makers, artists, and manufacturers
•Sales of manufactured building materials for makers and companies: beams, dowels, sheets
•Pop-ups and activities in partnership with corporate, municipal, and other non-profit organizations
