This guy is John Hardy. He used to make exclusive jewellery, now he is building his sustainable bamboo empire in Bali. He started a school, build a resort and goes trash-picking every morning. Inspiring guy. Now he made a set of machines to start recycling plastic waste collected at local markets. We dropped by at this amazing bamboo paradise to help him get started. He is searching for an effective way to get rid of all the plastic that is laying around in his neighbourhood.
