Our vision towards sustainable plastic waste free Sri Lanka is to develop a single platform “PlastiHive” to bring together all government and non-government recycling organisations. We believe in a future where people monetize their everyday recyclable waste thorough a single app that covers recycling process within the entire Island. Plastic waste recycling will become a profitable avenue to both government and nongovernment recycling organisations by expanding and properly coordinating plastic waste collection points within metropolitan areas.
Over the past few years we have conducted plastic waste collection campaigns, beach cleanup campaigns and wetland protection campaigns all over Southern Sri Lanka. As a pilot project, we were able to strategically place plastic waste recycling bins within the university environment.
Here are some picture of our efforts:
