Our Zoom call with Emmanuel Osei, our Shark Pond recipient in Ghana, went beautifully! The tech gods were with us! Emmanuel said that 2025 was "not easy, but interesting!". He told us about his various efforts to test possible uses of the plastic he's been collecting. One promising product is "paver bricks". One example is made from melted plastic, sand, and coconut husks. He also showed us a prototype of a backpack made from "fiber" made from shredded plastic. He's a fascinating young man!
