"Waste is Wealth Part V" Building a Steep Embankment Using Thrown and Abandoned Lorry Tires ✓A Discovery this Reporter made on expedition to Abangho Catholic Sanctuary Bamenda, Cameroon.

Up on the Abangho hills jut above the lone orphanage, stands an imposing sun dry debris building on a steep slope, supported by an embankment belt using big abandoned lorry tires looking more solid than a concrete Wall, I must attest.

The mystery underlying the steep embankment is that the plastic tires gathered from garages around town are parked in steps, using ordinary red ground to bind the tires and it looks modern, more solid and lasting.

Out of it, (the thrown lorry tires) a steep solid artistic embankment stands imposing at Abangho quarter supporting an apartment for over 40 years.

it is a come and see erection cheap and affordable at the same time a proper way of disposing out used plastic tires for construction.

An initiative this Reporter took pains off to study and discovered that the embankment belt out of or with abandoned plastic tires can last for decades more than a concrete wall whose irons rods stand the possibility to depreciate in no time once it constantly comes in contact with water.

A stone throw from this erection lies another craft work made out of thrown plastic containers, a balcony belt out of plastic containers.

What an enriching experience this Reporter came across on Saturday the 19th of August 2023 in Bamenda, Cameroon? which will beat your imagination.

The hero in question and the brain behind the said initiative, I was not opportune  to meet but  celebrate him at every blessed moment for his creation out of plastic waste management once the image comes to my minds eye.

Which is why I thought it wise to share the experience with the darling audience that you are to enhance the campaign on proper waste management by blasting Plastic pollution.

Every plastic waste has use and takes decades to depreciate. Only proper plastic waste management can make use of and dispose of waste. NB: Plastic waste has undefined life span.
