Leftovers, a truckful of... and $$$

Here are some more pictures taken during the process of building the tower.. Didn't have time to post them before.. Hehe.. See all the kusutness...

This is the one that we called the Devil.. Harharhar..

 Saiful, our senior is helping in tying the cans together

These are the tins that we didn't use for the tower cause they are too heavy and we couldn't even sell them.

Finally got the chance to clean up the BPM FASS room that we filled with all the bottles and cans.. We made quite a mess. Kana marahi karang if we don't clean it up..lol 

Then had to get all the bottles and cans into the car.. And oh yeah, it was a truckful.. Terpaksa beasak and even the trunk was full... 

See the blaring sun? It was reaaaaaaaally hot that day.

ROFL Looked as if I am on a mission to dump bodies..

Then off to Metusin Recycling Sdn Bhd located in Kampong Bengkurong Masin. There were these cute dogs there, a mother and her two lil' puppies.. Kalinya the one yang uruskan that place halau the dogs, maybe cause they saw my mum and I wearing tudong. I don't mind thou.. They seemed jinak and friendly and one of the puppy even looked at me with its puppy eyes.. かわいい!!! And the dogs seems to be afraid of us ... Hehe... I was a bit scared too cause I don't know what to do if they approach me.. 

Not ours but all the cans and recyclable materials send to the recycling place  

So.. in my mind sudah terbayang all the $$$.. Efna was thinking that the minimum $$$ we will get is $5 and me? Haha... Max. $20 and minimum $1o. Yup.. yup... totally over the top.

The buyer told me that currently the price of aluminium is less than before and they don't accept tins/besi. Therefore, they don't accept Mr. Brown nor Seasons' soy bean milk.

Separating the tins from the cans. They just use magnet.. So simple kan...

Here are the current prices for aluminium cans and palstic bottles:

Aluminuim cans: 0.30/kg

Plastic bottles: 0.03/kg

We had 14 kg of plastic bottles and 7 kg of cans.. So.. we only got $2.50. Hehe... Kesian ah.. I had too much hope.. Huhuhu....

But $$$ is not what we are aiming for, we wanted to let people know of how much plastics and aluminiums, which can be recycled, were thrown away just like that.. In UBD alone, Efna and I managed to collect not less than 50 cans and bottles or even more within one hour going thru garbage cans in FASS, CLT and SHBIE. And furthermore it was already late in the afternoon, where the cleaners had already collected the rubbish.. 

We did the tower not just for fun, it's to show how much we can help the earth by recycling..

Okay then, that is all for this semester project, will be proposing for other projects in the future..

P.S: I am going to change the layout cause of the sidebar. It's too small and we can't even see the pic of the endangered animal. Harhar..
