A mini vegetable garden built with plastic waste was recently unveiled at Baoshan Road Subdistrict’s Sanbao Huayuan residential complex.

Over two months, local residents collected more than 300 used plastic bottles and buckets.

Guided by the Shanghai Xianfeng Environmental Protection Social Service Center, volunteers cleaned and placed the plastic waste in the middle of the residential complex’s outdoor square. Residents filled the empty bottles and buckets with soil and planted vegetable seeds.

Subdistrict officials said it not only improves the local environment but also delivers the message of protecting the environment.
