Turning Plastic Waste Into Greenery... On The Water

If the ‘Doing Good’ channel is about sharing good ideas that are worth spreading – and hopefully replicating as a result – then the Dutch project ‘Recycled Park’ is definitely worth a mention. The project works in three steps: first, plastic waste is retrieved from the important European river New Meuse, right before it reaches the North Sea. Second, the plastic is recycled and turned into floating platforms. Third, the platforms are turned into green havens for nature and wild life to flourish. Right after the first floats were put into the river wildlife started to come to the floating park.

This short Mashable video explains it, but if you’re interested in more details, the project website itself is worth checking out, too.
