In Irpen, children collected 150 kg of plastic caps to buy a drone for the military
Plastic caps began to be collected at the end of summer. They are sent for processing, and the funds received will be transferred to the purchase of Ukrainian-made UAVs. Since the start of the campaign, about 300 kg have already been shipped.
“But this is not enough for the production of even one unmanned aerial vehicle, so the action continues, we continue to work to bring the long-awaited victory closer,” the Lyceum noted.
And here I am just putting mine in the recycling. Wish I had known this was an option.
The price of the MQ-1 Predator drone is $4 million. Aluminum cans go for around .25/lb. That’s a lot of cans.
