Empower has devised a system which allows people to exchange plastic waste for tokens. The tokens can in turn be exchanged for money or used to pay for plastic clean-up in other locations. Once implemented, the system will let anyone deliver at certified recycling stations. Blockchain technology will ensure that tokens for plastic are securely awarded and used. This could allow people to collect plastic and save the planet while making money.
