The main goal of our Plasket project is to reduce the amount of solid waste by promoting productive consumption, increasing the level of waste treatment and promoting the ideas of ecological culture. 2.1 billion tons of solid waste is consumed every year, of which about 12 percent is plastic waste. As a result, more than 4,000 marine animals are killed every year. Our project serves the realization of 7 goals of sustainable development. In order to implement our project, we first investigated the data on the amount of plastic waste in our country. Our team members collected enough plastic bottles. We have used a 100 percent environmentally friendly mechanical method to recycle the waste we collect and have developed appropriate equipment in three of them. At the next stage, we contacted the company "Ladyland" to weave a plastic basket from the processed product. As a result, we contacted several ladies to help them weave baskets. So, we cooperated with the ladies to clean the collected plastics, draw thread from the tool, and weave the basket. As a result of the sale of plastic baskets, we created conditions for our talented ladies to start their own business.
