Viral video of “Recycled Christmas tree” built with bottles in typhoon affected area
A man from Philippines created his own Christmas tree from used plastic bottles as his neighbourhood was affected by typhoon.

The Christmas tree is the biggest attraction of Christmas, and people try to decorate their tree as beautifully as they can. People across the globe decorate the tree with artefacts, lights, bells, socks, books, and other things they like.
But a man in the Philippines created a tree with his own efforts as his neighbourhood was affected by the typhoon. He decided to do something creative and unique, so instead of buying a tree, he created his own. He builds his Christmas tree with used plastic bottles.
Watch the video here:
A popular page, Now This (@nowthisnews), covered the creativity of a man named Nelson John Sese and posted it on X. Sese built a "7-foot-tall tree” using used plastic bottles of soft drinks, an old tire, wires, lights, and a star. He made a circle by tying bottles in a round, put that on the tires, and placed a star on top.
The video has gained more than 20,000 views on X.
