There are Thousands of schools around the world where-in the Children are Forced to sit on the floor and write in Their note books Supported by Their lap. Can't we change this in a small way? Here we go ...

We can Obtain plastic sheets (from the plastic waste disposed) of the required size and place one on top of the Other and press hard (or a Suitable way) to make a form of composite. Now get hold of the plastic bags disposed That Have Been recycled and available as sheets and wrap it around the board said uniformly to a thickness. These will be Known as pads. We can make pads for sitting as well as for Supporting while writing. This Will Ensure That the Children Do not Have to Go Through the hard-ships while Seated on the floor. This will be useful in all schools in the Poor Countries of the world. It May Even be useful in Developed nations too and it will create job opportunities.

Wooden boards are Costly and it degrades soon. Secondly imagine the number of trees felled due to it.

MORE IMPORTANTLY IT IS A WAY TO REUSE THE PLASTIC.
In Fact There exists a technology Called the "multicore extrusion" in Plastics Engineering Domain. The plastic waste and the Polythene bags are granulated. From this we can obtain a plastic sheet where-in the core is a recycled plastic and the outer surfaces are coated with virgin plastic for a small thickness. Unfortunately good Applications for These Were hither-to unknown. An application Which would require a good amount of this will Indirectly demand for more plastic waste collection and re-using it.

We can stretch a bit here Our imagination. If  possible we can also make smooth mouse pads from this.



FOR COLD CLIMATE REGIONS We can make mattress using the afore-Mentioned method. The warmth of the mattress will be very comforting for the people living in Such regions. Such mattress will be very useful in hospitals. Surely We Could Avoid seeing people sleeping on the cold floors.
