Video: Turning ocean waste into building bricks
Instead of drifting around polluting the sea and threatening aquatic species, ocean waste is being collected to make bricks for house construction.
These tiles can be used to build houses, buildings or recreational projects.
According to BI, with a desire to rebuild the community, the inventor ByFusion, New Zealand engineer Peter Lewis turned used plastic waste to contaminate the oceans into an eternal useful product for humans .
He invented a machine that can turn plastic into bricks, without adhesives. These tiles can be used to build houses, buildings or recreational projects. ByFusion plans to sell this eco-friendly, recycled product around the world.
Before 2050, plastic waste could exceed the number of fish in Earth's oceans.
