It bothered him.He decided to construct cabins using not only plastic bottles, but also stashing and hiding every non-biodegradable waste you can think of—straws, broken glass bottles, clothes, beer cans, to name just a few—right in there during construction.To harden and convert the plastic bottle into a smaller brick, they add dry sand.
