Plastic Flamingo, or The Plaf, was founded to tackle the overwhelming issue of plastic waste in the Philippines with a unique approach that combines environmental impact with local empowerment. The organization, led by a team passionate about protecting the oceans, collects and recycles plastic waste, transforming it into eco-friendly construction materials like planks and bricks. But for The Plaf, it’s about more than just recycling—it’s about inspiring communities to join the fight against pollution and giving people a stake in building a cleaner, more resilient future. By turning waste into something valuable, Plastic Flamingo not only reduces pollution but also creates local solutions for housing and infrastructure, proving that sustainable change can start from the ground up.
