ASSESSMENT NO. 6: Elevator Pitch

Hi my name is Luke L. Moraleda, a former 3rd year student of the University

of the City of Manila or more known as Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila. I
started my college in 2018 and took bachelor of science in civil engineering for
my course. I also graduated at Collegio De la Sagrada or known as Holy Family
Academy at Pampanga wherein I took Science Engineering and Technology as
my specialization or track curriculum.
I like sports such as swimming and martial arts. I am a competitive person
so I joined numerous competitions and proud to say became one of the
representatives of Pampanga in the filipino martial art’s arnis national competition
at baguio.
Currently we have an interesting project which aims to solve environmental
crisis against plastic and agricultural waste but also propose a promising business
which introduces biodegradable plastic cutlery into the market. The use of plastic
cutlery is estimated to be 40 billion pieces in the United states alone and after just
one single use, most of them are thrown out and end up in landfills or in our
waterways. So, our team came up with an idea of creating a biodegradable and
ecofriendly way to produce cutlery made from agricultural waste such as potato
peel.
With this vision, something has to change. We must move or take action to
stop this harmful trend of plastic cutlery and turn ourselves to more sustainable
products. Our team and product is focused on changing people’s view and
habits by encouraging everyone to rethink this dangerous type of wasteful
behavior. So, I present to you our solution to aid not only our environment but also
to preserve humanity and wildlife, the BIOPLASTIC CUTLERY.
