People from across the world, and here in Bali, are the key to the success of Plastic Exchange.

As we continue to educate local Balinese villagers about the environmental impact of plastic usage and the benefits of recycling, the cost for the rice exchange exceeds the buy-back of the plastic from the recycling facility. 

We are committed to supporting local rice farmers while ensuring all villagers, who bring their recyclable waste to the drop-off locations, receive an equitable exchange for their efforts.

The current imbalance is a matter of volume and we expect the system to be economically sustainable when every villager embraces the barter system. 

In the meantime, we are grateful for the generous support of those who see the value in what we are doing to restore the environment while honoring human dignity.
