Plastic Bottle Segregation Project

Small Action, Big Impact! 

By: Freddie Bernardino

Here in CYDC we responded to the call for waste management segregation by setting up our own plastic bottle segregation corner.

Why It Matters

Every plastic bottle you toss away has a story. It can either end up polluting rivers, oceans, and streets—or it can be reborn as something useful through recycling. Segregating plastic bottles is the first step in this transformation. Together, we can turn waste into opportunity!

The Campaign Vision

✨ Clean Communities – Imagine streets, schools, and parks free from plastic litter. 

✨ Empowered Citizens – Every person becomes a change-maker by simply dropping bottles in the right bin. 

✨ Greener Future – Recycling reduces pollution, saves energy, and protects wildlife.

This project isn’t just about waste management—it’s about building pride in our environment.

The Ripple Effect

• 🌱 Environmental Win: Less plastic choking our rivers and oceans.

• 💼 Economic Boost: Recycling creates jobs and supports local industries.

• 🏘️ Community Spirit: Working together builds stronger, cleaner neighborhoods.

This is more than a project—it’s a movement. Every bottle you segregate is a step toward a cleaner planet. Let’s make segregation a habit, recycling a culture, and sustainability a lifestyle.  

Join the Plastic Bottle Segregation Project today. Because the future is in our hands—and our bins!
