Soda bottles are transforming low income neighborhoods in the Philippines. These plastic bottles are now being viewed as a green, cheap and sustainable way to light homes. In areas where homes are often built so close to each other that they have no windows or natural light, these bottles are a godsend. With electricity unaffordable or unavailable for many families, they often have to work, do chores and eat in near darkness.
Now there is light. Take a look at this. Absolutely incredible.
Soda bottles are the major component of an innovation called the "Solar Bottle Bulb." And these bottles are popping out of roofs and illuminating the lives of many Filipinos. You must see this.
