Pollution is a common issue our environment faces that we do not pay much attention to. Everyday, people leave their trash outside and the building of this has a severe effect on our environment. Our project will help this cause and put less stress on the people. With this the environment will not only be cleaner but safer for all living things on our planet. The beaches of Peru, particularly in Barranco (Lima), face a significant pollution issue, primarily caused by the accumulation of plastic bottles during the summer. This pollution adversely impacts both humans and marine biodiversity.
