One man's trash is another man's condo.

After collecting more than a million plastic bottles, Robert Bezeau made an unconventional decision — to build an entire village out of plastic bottles. One study has found that there could be more plastic than fish in the sea by 2050, so essentially anything else is preferable, no matter how out of the ordinary. For this one we traveled to the island of Bocas Del Toro in Panama to meet the young couple about to move into their first plastic bottle home.

History

Nathaniel C. Wyeth
Born October 24, 1911
Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, United States
Died July 4, 1990 (aged 78)
Nationality American
Alma mater University of Pennsylvania
Occupation inventor, chemical engineer

Nathaniel Wyeth joined DuPont in 1936 as a field engineer.
In 1967, he pondered whether soda could be stored in plastic bottles. After experimenting with a plastic detergent bottle that proved incapable of withstanding the forces of pressurized liquids, he realized that a much stronger material would be required. He settled on polyethylene terephthalate ( PET) as the material and received a patent in 1973.

 

UP-CYCLING vs RECYCLING

Many peoples don’t know that PET plastic bottles mostly get recycled into polyester fibers, and then into clothes?

*Did you know that every time you put polyester clothes in your washing machine, that millions of fibers are sent in our oceans?

The re-use of the PET bottles in construction, without any transformation ( up cycling ) avoid the need to recycle the PET into clothes, therefore protecting the sea life!

At Plastic Bottle Village, we inspire to bring together a collective of minds and bodies, to work together to create awareness, and to take part in educating the world, to the positive effects of re-using eco building materials.

Say NO to single use plastic bottles
If you say YES, than drink it, and build it

Protect Wildness and Wildlife.

Change the world without changing the Earth.
