STATUES

Building new machines and devices through which the humanity can fight the global warming it is important, although, One Common Goal CIC UK the children's charity is attempting a totally different approach through which it is trying to use the most UNIQUE projects in the entire UK to educate the children to become passionate about helping on a yearly basis the environment, their communities and most importantly, obtaining useful life skills and habits for better development and success for their own future.
OCG's single-use plastic idea is involving all the children by giving them pleasant home assignments to complete alongside with their parents, later using them to build unique landmarks in a way that the children will be proud of their contributions for many years to come. OCG is giving single-use plastic a second life and at the same time reducing the amount which would normally end up in landfills.
OCG plans to build two large statues 15-20m tall in Plymouth UK at each end of A38 which crosses the town in the middle. The statues will be representing a boy and a girl with their forearms resting on a sign which will welcome the people entering the area of Plymouth '' welcome to Plymouth'', and the other hand will be lifted in the air, having a spring mechanism which will allow it to wave when the wind blows.
The children will be taught by OCG to build at home 10cm/10cm cubes made of single-use plastic and resin which is environmentally friendly once it sets, please see the attached image of the first cube made by OCG.
The cubes will be made using our instructions and on the expense of the children's families where possible. In this way, the children will be able to take pride of their full contribution for their assignment and more than that the children will be taught to personalise their cubes according to their preferences and creativity, adding their names on the cubes, just like in the OCG's first cube.
If some families won't be able to afford to pay for the resin and the other materials, OCG will find raise founds to pay for them.
The cubes will be collected on the site at the time of the assembly of the statues in order to give the children the chance to see live their cubes being integrated into the project and even giving them the chance to record the event.
The statues will take up to 20,000 cubes which will give most children in Plymouth the chance to participate and leave their mark for their contribution to the environment for decades to come.
This project will be extended to other cities in the UK and the children will be able to chose different shapes and ideas, offering a chance to the entire community to participate in these amazing projects and more importantly, teaching the children to get into the habit of doing something for the environment every year using their creativity in outdoor activities which is a well known issue for the young generations. 


This idea was registered by us with the most extraordinary program ever in the world by Prince William and Sir David Attenborough, called '' Earthshot'' which aims to stimulate many people on earth to bring forward their unique ideas through which to help restore the world's environmental issues. If our idea will be as appreciated by Prince William, we hope to be able to receive some help opening a few doors and succeed in helping our children get involved in these creative projects, help the community and most importantly the environment.
