What is driven from plastic, the size of Hawaii, and wind and solar energy? Dutch architect Ramon Parmar is successful with his vision, debris recycling be built Island, plastic floating a floating, sustainable society from a collection of the Pacific Ocean.
Wide angle: Drowning in plastic
K?STER went public with his ideas for recycling island that would support their own agriculture, a community of residents and even tourists from his position somewhere between Hawaii and San Francisco, in the year 2009. His company, desire and mood is architecture, now in the process of designing a prototype of the Habitat 10,000 square kilometres with a grant from the Fund architecture Netherlands (according to the company's site).

Still, K?STER estimates it will take years, once they begin plastic of the Pacific collecting, before they have enough, to merge (with solar energy) in the island, as he told CTV News. No one really has no idea how much dirt is out there. Although that tends to media, refer to the "garbage patch" as a floating Island, sometimes even contrary to say that it almost double the size of the continental United States, other sources. "The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has a thorough article on" the ' great Pacific garbage patch "De Mystifying".
Also, is that article that the rubble make found in the ocean most plastics, and recycling could island a creative solution for cleaning up and reuse some of it. Algae and compost toilets the island will make fertile, and the living arrangements are presented as urban mixed use.

About half a million inhabitants - slightly less than the population of Baltimore - island could reside on recycling. Although I'm sure she could come with some interesting reasons for the move it (shipwreck, saw OASIS, got turned to solar agriculture?), the project itself will probably remain the economic red. Clean up only the ocean, before building begins is a gigantic task of the time, energy and costs that simply mind boggling.
