We are still hopeful that (soon!) we can get back to the important job of helping our fellow San Diegans get paid for recycling, but permitting in Ocean Beach has proven to be much more challenging than we expected when we moved from Mission Valley, just about a year ago

The opening of a new recycling center in Ocean Beach has been in limbo for more than a year, as the business goes back-and-forth over what permits they would need.

So thankful for the warm welcome we've received from OB! We had an absolute blast at their amazing holiday parade, can't wait to get back to business on Voltaire as soon as we finish permitting.

Flipflopi turns plastic waste into beautiful Kenyan boats!

The Flipflopi Project began with “Flipflopi Ndogo” or “Little Flipflopi” in Swahili. To create this 10-meter long vessel, seven tons of plastic were collected from the beaches, then crushed and cleaned. Finally, they were melted and poured into molds to form the boat’s structure. The dhow also features a sail made of 1,500 plastic bottles and a patterned hull made from 30,000 flip-flops.

Traditionally, dhows are made from hardwood, which is extremely costly to build and maintain. For the majority of the population in Lamu, these expenses are unsustainable. By using plastic waste as a raw material to build dhows, these costs could be slashed. This would simultaneously provide boaters with sturdy vessels and have a positive impact on the marine ecosystem.
