Is there no end to the ingenuity of humans? Just when we have an unsolvable problem along comes a brilliant mind with a brilliantly simple solution.
Let there be no more hand wringing over the problem of over loading our landfill sites.
Let us no longer tolerate ghastly accumulations of garbage spoiling many a beautiful shore line and polluting our waters.
Let us no longer ponder the conundrum of whether it is more environmentally sound to stash or burn.
Forget Nostradamus. Forget Global warming. Forget the glum prognostications that the end is near.
The Japanese have presented us with a super sensible answer. No more dependence upon foreign governments to supply us with oil.
We have been given a solution to our environmental and our energy problems all in one fell swoop.
I wish I could speak Japanese. I wish I could shake the hand of this creative thinker.
The solution was right under our noses but it was a Japanese gentleman who brought it to light.
SO WHAT IS THIS GREAT DISCOVERY ALL ABOUT?
It is about turning plastic waste, food containers, bottles, bottle caps, plastic wrap and all disposable plastic into oil. After all, it was oil in the first place. It is about a machine that can produce oil in the form of gasoline, diesel and kerosene from plastic garbage.
Akinori Ito has invented a contraption that will do that. The appliance is only about the size of a water cooler and it is apparently safe to use. Little children can stash the trash right into the top. Mr. Ito travels the world spreading his gospel and teaching people in advanced and underdeveloped nations about preserving the planet by eliminating trash plastic and at the same time creating something that humanity can definitely use and needs.
Imagine a couple of these at the exit of every fast food restaurant.
They could be in all public places. What a clean and wonderful environment we should have then! They would be useful in parks too although they do need a modest electricity supply.
I expect that they can be made in varying sizes but I want a domestic sized gadget like this right in my kitchen.
Will it catch on? I certainly hope so. Our twenty first century life style needs it!
Unless some scientific data can be produced against the new plastic to oil machine then it should go into full production so we can all start using it immediately,
