PLASTIC-EATING DRONE COULD SWALLOW GARBAGE PATCH
Posted on April 29th, 2013 by Bob and Joy Schwabach
Popsci.com has an article on what to do with the miles of junk floating in the Pacific. It’s called, “Plastic-Eating Drone Could Swallow Great Pacific Garbage Patch.” An electric boat would tow a net to scoop the debris. We haven’t gotten to the part yet, where something comes along to scoop up the nets.
- On the same page, Popsci.com has a link to an article titled “One Man’s Giant Garbage Patch is Another’s Beautiful Island Nation.” Dutch visionaries are calling it “Recycled Island.” (Would it then be an independent nation?)
