A flip-flop safari
The
company Ocean Sole, in Kenya, East Africa,
makes
beautiful toys and sculptures of animals. They make colorful
elephants, giraffes, lions, rhinos,
dolphins, sharks, turtles,
and a lot more.
But there’s something very special about these animals.
They’re made from old fl ip-fl ops! Every year, people fi nd
thousands of old rubber fl ip-fl ops
on the beaches in East
Africa. They make the beaches and oceans dirty, and they
are dangerous for fi sh and sea animals.
Ocean Sole workers collect the fl ip-fl ops and clean them.
Then they recycle the rubber and plastic
from the fl ip-fl ops
and make the toys and sculptures. They sell their animals in
zoos, aquariums, and stores all over the world.
Ocean Sole
helps clean the beaches and gives jobs to local people, too.
Would you like to go on a fl ip-fl op safari?
