Nusa Penida Plastic Reduction Project
Project Aim:
In Nusa Penida, Bali, the only drinking water students have access to, is in single-use plastic bottles purchased from their canteen. Together, we are trying to change that!
The SMA 1 Senior Secondary in Ped, Nusa Penida, school principal, Ketut, has agreed to ban plastic bottles if we can provide all 500 students with reusable drink bottles.
Future projects we hope to support the school and the community with include:
- Providing cages for the collection of plastic bottles (to be compacted and sent off the island for recycling);
- Building an Environment Education Centre from Eco Blocks (made of recycled plastic) at the school for school and community use.
We have already provided 50 drink bottles to students and are raising funds via a "Party With A Purpose" Wine Cocktail party to fund the remaining 450 bottles. Click here to purchase event tickets or donate drink bottles:
