People eager to exchange plastic bottles for socks in HCMC
Mon, 3 May 2021
A project in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is creating pairs of socks from recycled plastic bottles.
And anyone who donated bottles to the scheme last week were given a pair of socks in exchange.
Le Hong Nhu was among those in line in Phu Nhuan district’s Ward 8, ready to swap her bottles for socks.
She believes plastic waste is a major environmental problem and was happy to provide a helping hand.
