When we save, segregate and pack plastics into bottles, we can make building blocks that can be reused over and over again. Together we can build green spaces that enrich our community and remove plastic from the biosphere. Together we can transition from plastic to ever greener harmony with Earth’s cycles.
An Ecobrick is a plastic bottle packed to a set density with clean and dry, used plastic to make a reusable building block. Ecobricks enable anyone, anywhere to take personal responsibility for their plastic and build cool stuff.
