Kenyan Hero turns Invasive Plant into Plastic Replacement!

DESCRIPTION:
This guy from Kenya is turning one of the world’s most invasive aquatic plants into plastic alternatives!

This is Joseph Nguthiru, a Young Champion of the Earth.

And with his company Hyapak, he’s transforming water hyacinth into packaging and everyday products.

Water hyacinth spreads rapidly across lakes and waterways, it disrupts ecosystems, kills aquatic life, and makes fishing, transport, and irrigation difficult.
And because it grows so fast, it’s incredibly hard to control.

But Joseph found a way to turn that into an advantage.
By extracting fibres from the plant, his team created a durable material that can be moulded into things like bags and wrappers.

They even work with the local fishing communities to harvest and dry the hyacinth.

This helps clear waterways while also creating income for local people, supporting over 45 green jobs so far!
The final product can be used just like conventional plastic packaging, but unlike plastic, they break down naturally within months.
