Plastic Bank: Enabling plastic recycling and financial inclusion with IBM Blockchain

Eighty percent of ocean plastic starts on land in developing countries. Plastic Bank's solution to stop ocean plastic also focuses on alleviating poverty by making plastic waste a currency. Their work humanizes the benefits of IBM Blockchain, Hyperledger Fabric, LinuxOne and IBM Cloud, and has expanded to four countries: Brazil, Haiti, Indonesia and the Philippines

"To me, blockchain is really the foundation of trust. It’s a trust stamp, it’s a trust tool, and it really provides that unlimited trust to just let us grow and adapt as needed," explains Shaun Frankson, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Plastic Bank.
