Mike Biddle: We can recycle plastic http://www.ted.com/t...ike_biddle.html I must say I'm very impressed by this speech. Dunno if it fits into technology of the future, since it looks like they already make money in this factory. Anyway it's amazing if it's really as efficient as he suggests. Only doubt? If it's so cool how come most plastic doesn't come from recycling? Too early?

Wow. Now that is really cool. I'm glad that plastic isn't destined to sit around forever anymore.

I've always said that if you have a waste stream, be it plastics or co2, what you really have is a resource that's just going untapped. Turn linear consumer->waste patterns into cycles, like the rain to lakes to clouds to rain system.

Live content within small means. Seek elegance rather than luxury, Grace over fashion and wealth over riches.
Listen to clouds and mountains, children and sages. Act bravely, think boldly.
Await occasions, never make haste. Find wonder and awe, by experiencing the everyday.

Even though we can recycle plastics, the thing is the chemical that is being used in recycling plastic is not earth friendly. -.-
