Description
Our mission is to empower communities to leap into the future of clean energy.
Design and build planters out of plastic water bottles as a way to combat plastic pollution and waste. Utilize resources available at home, or would otherwise be considered waste, to create a purpose for a plastic bottle, as opposed to dumping into a landfill.
