MAUBAN, Quezon—Mauban, a first-class municipality in Quezon, is finding cash in trash in what seems to be a thousand and one ways.
From discarded candy wrappers, juice packs, soft-drink plastic straws and other items, curtains, comforter, throw pillows, bags, hollow blocks and assorted things are coming out at the end of the
production line.
“If the garbage item is recyclable, we will find ways to convert it into something useful,†said Erly Reasonda, head of the municipal environment and natural
resources office.
She showed empty juice packs filled up with plastic trash sewn together to become a “comforter,†a soft, sturdy item that may serve as protective mat for baby baths and bedridden adults.
