THE NEXT GENERATION

To Help make the World a cleaner place to Live

In today’s world the use of plastic is enormous and so the waste generated because of it. Plastics
can be recycled but very few section of people are paying attention towards recycling, only the
garbage man is collecting them to be recycled. They can’t collect all of the plastics thus leaving
behind a giant pile of it. Common people should contribute to this cause, but they are not much
motivated to do it, here comes our idea to motivate them and give them something in return so
that they become more concerned in cleaning and removing plastic waste from our environment.
WHAT IS PLASKENS :
It is an idea which works on Give and Take Policy. People from home should bring the
plastic to the PLASKENS STATION and there they will receive the PLASKENS TOKEN which
can be used in paying for the public transport like buses, metro, local railways etc.
HOW IT WorkS:
Each of the Plaskens Station will have a PLASKENS MACHINE which will collect the
plastic and segregate them on the basis of their grade and add the equivalent token to the
person’s account. These tokens can be used in public transport where facilities will be provided
to pay through these tokens. The plastic received will then be sent to be recycled and thus they
can be used as a source of the company’s capital.
HOW TO USE PLASKENS to pay
To use the Plaskens people should have a Plaskens account which can be created on the website or
the Application of the Plaskens. After creating their account they will be provided with a unique id
number and a bar code. There will be an option of Plaskens Smart Card containg both the number and
barcode. To pay people can either enter their unique id number or just scan their barcode through
application or smart card.
In every public transport token receiver will be provided to pay through Plaskens Tokens and the tokens
collected from them will be converted to money and will be sent to bank account connected to that
respective token receiver.
Dependencies and benefits:
The working of this idea is fully dependent on the plastic dumped by the people in Plaskens
Machine. The fact that people are receiving something in return to dump their plastic waste in a
particular place makes this idea a wonderful way to clean the environment and make it eco friendly,
more people will show intrest in making this a successful idea. In the end it will be beneficial for all
parties involved. The company can generate capital by using recycled plastics, people will receive free
tokens for their travel and our environment will be cleaned thus making travel through Plaskens an eco
friendly way to travel.
