- The Caribbean city of Utila, in Honduras, has found a solution to prevent thousands of tonnes of plastic from going into the Atlantic: turn them into asphalt. Dolphins can now dance freely in Utila’s turquoise waters without fearing that plastic will end up in their stomachs.
- The municipality’s innovative solution is a mixture of plastic bottles and cement, and aims to stop the environmental pollution that threatens not only the impressive dolphin sanctuary, but all the marine species currently living in the second largest reef in the world.
- “About five million plastic bottles arrive at the island each year, in addition to what the sea brings to the beaches,” explains Utila’s mayor, Troy Bodden, “so we decided to get rid of this plastic by shredding it and using it as a material for the concrete mix to pave our streets.”
- Inspired by an idea that was first applied in India, Utila’s plastic roads are more sustainable, durable and cheaper than conventional roads. It was the Indian example, coupled with a tourist’s video of Canada’s plastic roads, that inspired Mayor Bodden.
- The island’s authorities are now using the raw material to pave Utila’s streets, keeping the cetaceans, whose dance attracts 2.3 million tourists each year, safe from the plastic invasion.
- The more than five million plastic bottles that each year make their way to the Honduran island, in the Caribbean department of Islas de la Bahía, will no longer finish in the ocean.
