Planet’s ocean-plastics problem detailed in 60-year data set
I&#x27;ve got a plan based on self-replicating swarm robots.  The basic idea is to collect oceanic trash and recycle it into more robots (to collect more trash to make more robots, &amp;c.)  The geometric increase should allow for a (relatively) small &quot;kernel&quot; to grow to handle the global problem.<p>Two primary recycling technologies seem promising: Thermal Depolymerization and Molten Salt Oxidation.<p>I&#x27;ve acquired two boats, one to serve as a base and the other to get to&#x2F;from it, and I hope to begin collecting trash (in SF bay to start) this summer.  :-)  <i>Fingers crossed...</i>
