Posted on greenvoice.com (http://greenvoice.com/events/183) this is a project for everyone to share if you would be so kind!
To help find really innovative uses for empty plastic fluid containers with a handle and screw top. Each one is able to contain 5 litres of fluid.
They come from the Ventnorian. A small but unique shop in Ventnor, Isle of Wight UK. That truly has a “green halo” around it.
Previously they were used to store eco-friendly laundry liquid.
We thought rather than throw them away and further fill up our very limited landfill site on the island…There must be other uses for them as empty containers. We end up with at least five such containers a week.
We would like to invite you, our fellow readers and environmental champions to suggest to us some really innovative uses for these plastic containers…so we can promote them as such on our small island…
No prizes sadly for this request for innovative and creative thinking from you…Just the personal satisfaction of knowing you may have stopped plastic containers going to the landfill and finding a new use in the community. Plus the satisfaction that you have made a difference to our comunity…with a landfill site that is reaching capacity.
Please email your thoughts to ventbag AT btinternet.com (change AT to @ for email, it is not shown as @ in the address to avoid spamming)
We really would appreciate your thoughts and help with this.
Many many thanks,
Lesley, Sheila and Mark
