30、 ever noticed plastic waste everywhere in your community? Dr. Aboubacar Kampo has. He was living in Cte dIvoire, a country on the coast of West Africa, where plastic is a big environmental problem, compared with water and air pollution. Cte dIvoires biggest city, Abidjan, produces more than 300 tons

31、 of plastic rubbish a day, and only about 5% is recycled. How can we turn plastic into something useful? Kampo wondered. So Kampo, who works for UNICEF, the United Nations Childrens Fund, googled, researched, and then noticed a company in Colombia, a country in South America. Plastic pollution is a

32、problem there, too. Conceptos Plsticos, the Colombian company that Kampo read about online, recycles plastic waste and turns it into big, Lego-like bricks（砖）for building schools and houses.

In 2018, UNICEF built its first classrooms in Abidjan, using bricks produced in Colombia by Conceptos Plsticos.

35、Right away, the local education improved a lot. People couldnt believe it at the beginning, that the classrooms were made of plastic. But now all the parents want their children in these classrooms. By the end of 2021 UNICEF had built 528 classrooms in Cte dIvoire. The new Conceptos Plsticos factory

36、 in Abidjan will soon be producing bricks from rubbish collected in childrens playgrounds and on the beach. The environmental influence is huge.
