喀麦隆人将塑料瓶回收到渔民的独木舟中

喀麦隆人将塑料瓶回收到渔民的独木舟中

Ismaël Essome from Cameroon is making a positive impact on the environment in a place plagued by plastic waste.

The city of Douala on the Atlantic coast is home to over 5-million people and according to a press statement, its inhabitants produce over 600,000 tonnes of plastic waste every year, of which less than 10% gets recycled.

In an interview with Al Jazeera, Essome says that he realised that all the rivers were full of plastic and that no one cared. He was shocked by this and decided to do something.

According to The Good News Network, he collected empty bottles, built a canoe and then waited for a storm to test out his creation. ‘To the astonishment of the fishermen watching from the shore, Essome’s boat worked like a dream.’

Essome在他的第一个回收成功之后,创建了一个名为Madiba&Nature的非营利组织,从该地区收集塑料废物,以将需要的船只转变为需要的渔民,并同时清理河流。他还向半岛电视台解释说,他希望通过树立榜样来改变人们的心态。

By September 2019 the organization had set up 100 Ecobins in Douala, collecting up to 3 tonnes of plastic waste per month. He and a group of 30 volunteers can also be found doing river cleanups and removing what appears to be countless bottles from the rivers.
