Turning Recycled Plastic into Sustainable Buildings & Local Livelihoods

[Living Mandala]

Dear Friends,

Are you interested in scaleable, appropriate technologies that can turn waste into resource?

Join us for a FREE Webinar overview of a ground breaking appropriate technology that could have revolutionary impacts across the world - turning plastic waste into a sustainable building solution. In this webinar, we will get an overview of this leading-edge technology from the inventor himself - Harvey Lacey.

Known as Ubuntu Blocks.... this brilliant, low-cost, waste-to-resource solution utilizes plastic waste and compresses it into blocks that can be used as a medium for sustainable building construction! This proven appropriate technology solution tested in Haiti transforms this waste into a valuable resource that can be replicated around the world.

This Technology Can:

• Turn waste into building materials for needed shelters, education centers, and infrastructure
• Have scaleable global impact in reducing plastic waste in oceans, rivers, and communities
• Create sustainable local livelihoods and reduce environmental pollution
• Lessen the effects of pollution to improve human & environmental health

The Ubuntu Blocks concept is holistic and sustainable approach to building homes, communities, cleaner living conditions and a less polluted earthy, and most of all, integrity for the people of developing nations.

Plastic waste is collected, cleaned, recycled, and then compressed into blocks to be used as building blocks. This proven appropriate technology solution tested in Haiti transforms this waste into a valuable resource that can be replicated around the world. Ubuntu Blocks in Bodh Gaya, India!
