    Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in our oceans and landfills, causing severe environmental damage.
    By recycling plastic bottles, we can:
    1. Conserve resources: Recycling reduces the need for new raw materials, saving energy and natural resources.
    2. Reduce pollution: Proper disposal prevents plastic from contaminating ecosystems and harming wildlife.
    3. Save energy: Producing recycled plastic uses less energy than creating new plastic from scratch.
    4. Create jobs: The recycling industry provides employment opportunities in collection, processing, and manufacturing.
    5. Mitigate climate change: Recycling reduces greenhouse gas emissions associated with plastic production and waste incineration.

      Agree. Just wish you'd slow it down a bit. Maybe pause a bit between each idea? Gives us slower people time to absorb what we just watched. Had to take a break after 1/4 of the way through. Too intense! You probably could acquire more watchers if you dived it into 3 or 4 videos. Just my humble opinion. Fresh, new ideas though! Clever.

    I loved many of these ideas. Some of my favorites:
    - using the gallon handles mounted to the wall or board to hold cleaning or other tools (brooms, hammer, etc)
    - hanging the ice bottles behind a fan (just need something to catch the drips and use that water to water your plants
    - making a watering can
    - the zippered container
    - the waterproof matchstick container
    - the small items hanging organizers
    ... And other i cannot think of right now

    I was actually really impressed how many clever ideas you had…things that would realistically be very useful and convenient without being cheesy, gimmicky, or obviously cheap and ugly looking. I would actually do some of the ideas. Props.
    The video is pretty long though, you could split it up and might even benefit your channel to do so, with the algorithm and all.
    It’s unfortunate so many of the commenters are so close-minded and negative (and stupid. I hate to be mean and negative myself, but come on, if the video is going too fast for you then slow it down, or rewind it! Don’t downvote it just because you have a pea-brain!)
    I think it’s great what you are doing; inspiring people to recycle and minimize waste is wonderful. And with so many legit clever ideas and hacks I guarantee there is at least something for even the most cynical of people (if they make it through the whole video).

    Not sure where you think the water is gonna drain as it melts behind the fan, which is by the way electric last time I checked water and electricity don’t mix well….. what do I know? 🤷🏼‍♀️ i’ve only worked in the ED and Trauma Unit for 28 years. But yeah, last time I checked, water and electricity don’t mix.
    As much as I love this video, I do have to reiterate what other people have said is bad really bad. I wish we would all go back to glass. I’m happy to pay the deposit plus everything tasted better and it’s safer for our bodies and the ocean. Frogs are born with six legs, seven legs. Bees and frogs are the first sign that is going down the drain no pun intended. so I guess if you have these really great ideas with the plastic bottles as long as we’re not buying them and we’re reusing what we already have. It’s fantastic. Maybe that’s something you could open with your next video. I’d love to support you, but I wanna make sure your hearts in the future of the planet. It is important to a lot of us. I’m not a tree hugger, but I do wanna live in a clean world.❤❤❤

Hahaha I got it find a cool clever few of them and just make them when nobody's around and set them up. I thought the hiking cup out of a bottle was genius because it had a handle. Not very sturdy probably but an emergency lol. Hell, I grabbed a giant square jug and was about to make a toolbox out of it like he showed, but the lock was the lid and I used the two lids to make a little water pump out of just because I could. UA-cam's really playing with my creativity I went from writing song, lyrics and poems to making a tiny water pump in a soldering iron! What did I need a tiny water pump for 😂
