The environmental group ranked the Philippines as the

“third-worst polluter into the world’s oceans” after

China and Indonesia.

More than 54,200 pieces of plastic waste were

recovered from the bay in total, including some 9,000
from Nestle products the most frequently-seen brand,
according to a tally kept by the group.
In the Philippines, a country of 103 million people with high
levels of poverty, products sold in single-use sachets include
instant coffee, shampoo, cooking oil, food seasoning and
toothpaste.

Greenpeace said the Philippines contributed 1.88 million tons of

“mismanaged plastic waste” each year, with Thailand, Vietnam
and Malaysia also on its list of the world’s biggest ocean plastic
polluters.
HISTORY OF ECOBRICKS
The GEA Alliance finds its roots in the
Northern Philippines.
In 2012, Russell Maier stumbled on
ecobriking in the town of Sabangan, Mt.
Province as a way to transform his home
plastic. With the help of Irene Bakisan and
Pi VIllaraza they began to refine the
ecobricking methodology and pedagogy.
Together they developed the Vision Ecobrick
Guide as a way to disseminate Ecobricks
throughout the school system. The open
source guide book was instrumental in
assisting the spread of ecobricks to
thousands of schools.
Best Solution: ECOBRICKS - your simple
solution for plastic.
An Ecobrick is a plastic bottle packed
tight with used clean and dry plastics to
create a building block that can be used
over and over again.
 OBJECTIVES
Given the purpose of ecobricks to eradicate, if not to
reduce plastic pollution in the bodies of water, this initiative will
likewise:
Promote discipline and appreciation of the value of Mother
Nature and the only planet we live in.
Create a positive impact to the environment by reducing
plastic waste, resulting to a cleaner and healthier community.
Teach and develop skills and creativity in building structures
out of ecobricks.
Build more structures to inspire others, hence, activity is
emulated.
Foster widespread community participation in programs
designed to preserve the environment.
