Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), commonly used in bottles and packaging, is often found degraded on beaches and in coastal areas, making traditional recycling difficult. However, this waste can be converted into valuable products.

This project transforms beach-collected PET waste into engaging chemistry learning tools. The initiative organizes beach cleanups to tackle plastic pollution directly, fostering community involvement and environmental awareness. By using chemical processes, the collected plastics are transformed into educational science kits, showcasing the project's commitment to recycling and education by giving waste a second life. The project includes hands-on experiments and engaging talks, designed to inspire communities and educate them on recycling practices and sustainability principles.
