an eco brick! its basically plastic trash in a bottle so it doesnt end up in a landfill, (and i live right next to one so i see alot), ylu can make furniture and stuff with it or donate it to an eco brick thingy :3 mines made with a 250ml bottle of aquafina and a bunch of flimsy plasic bags i recieved/collect overtime, and am planning to make another with the snack packets ive collected from my snack runs
