Eyewear made in Flint from recycled water bottles

Muddling through the water crisis in Flint, Michigan involved delivering bottled water to the city’s population of nearly 100,000 for almost two years. This was a city already in economic decline, of course, desperately in need of a helping hand. Today, I donated to an interesting Kickstarter project, to help build a new eyewear company in Flint, which will make eyeglass frames out of the tons of recycled water bottles that made their way to the city.
