00:00 What is being done in the country?

00:01 Recycling of plastic waste

00:03 is a project of a French environmentalist in Montinlupa.

00:07 Plastic can be processed to become furniture.

00:11 JT Soriano has the first news.

00:13 If the weather is bad, we often find out

00:20 how much garbage is thrown into our oceans.

00:25 But this happens all year round.

00:28 And sometimes, we are the number one in the world

00:31 as the source of plastic in the sea and in the world.

00:35 Most of it comes from rivers and estuaries.

00:41 There are also many reasons for the waste

00:43 in the drainage and irrigation.

00:45 But what if the non-rotting materials

00:48 can become furniture?

00:51 How?

00:52 The Plastic to Furniture Journey

00:55 starts at this recycling factory

00:58 of French environmentalist Francois Lesage.

01:02 Every day, thousands of plastic waste

01:04 are brought to this plant in Montinlupa.

01:06 These are recycled and later

01:09 made into furniture and garbage

01:11 that becomes furniture.

01:12 Let's go.

01:13 There is a machine here where the plastic is crushed

01:18 like bottles, toothpaste tubes, and tetra packs.

01:22 Once crushed, it is mixed in a special mixer

01:25 and then crushed to become eco-box and eco-lumbers

01:30 that become furniture.

01:33 At present, the company has more than 200 collection points

01:37 of plastic waste in Metro Manila

01:40 that is being helped by the French Embassy

01:42 to spread it throughout the country.

01:46 As we are working to set up a major plastic recycling factory

01:49 to scale up our impact and divert even more plastic waste

01:55 from its way to the ocean.

01:56 The French Embassy has also helped the DENR,

02:00 the Department of Environment and other programs

02:04 to protect the ocean.

02:06 We will be very honored to work with you

02:09 to do a new participation between the Philippines and France.

02:13 We wish for the informal sector to be included

02:17 in the solid waste management industry.

02:20 This is the first news.
