Ocean Sole, an organization in Kenya, that cares about the ocean, its ecosystems and marine wildlife found a creative and productive way to save the coastline from pollution.
The thousands scattered rubber soles on beaches of Kenya are swallowed by fish & other animals and obstruct turtles reaching the sea.
How? By transforming them into colorful masterpieces in the shape of elephants, giraffes, lions, rhinos, dolphins, sharks, turtles. So the people in Kenya stopped throwing away the flipflops and started cleaning the beaches and making masterpieces, sending this way a message to the whole world.
Love the colors!
What a wonderful way to preserve the natural beauty of the planet!

Speaking about plastic recycling: do you know the work of Dave Hakkens; he is a big activist in home plastic recycling, i.e. he builds (and sells) machines with which everyone can create sculptures from plastic at home. In other words: don't stop with the recycling by adoring the work from Kenya. Let's take them as a role model and recycle a bit at home, too :)
