Millions upon millions of pounds of trash end up in the ocean and landfills across the globe each year. In an effort to minimize that number, Amarildo Silva from Brazil, 23, has developed a simple yet valuable hobby that helps both the earth and its creatures!

A store cashier by day and craftsman by night, Silva collects discarded tires and transforms them into eco-friendly and comfortable beds for animals. With his family’s help, he gathers every tire he can find from the streets or the landfills.
