IDEA
Searching a problem statement then finding an idea for that gives a ton of satisfaction!
Grown in a well-nurtured environment with my parents encouraging me to build something which helps the community. I have tried to solve ’n’ number of problem statements and finding solutions. And in this cycle learnt a lot many things which the bookish knowledge fails to give. Many of my friends including me have successfully completed the design thinking course which taught us to think and observe this beautiful world in the bird’s view like why do we need to rotate the tap in only one specific direction, why not in the reverse direction?

Among many problem statements one such was bot which would identify the plastic and would pick only that piece especially in the sea-shore, underwater where humans can’t reach.
BEFORE AGES it was great!
These plastics get accumulated over a span of time and because of the wear and tear these gets converted into micro-plastic.
Finding solution for this problem statement we came across many problems. What we found was converting/recycling the plastic won’t help us, but we need to interfere into the conversion cycle. If we recycle plastic then again plastic will be produced and recycling again will result into plastic, as a result we can’t reduce the plastic. Using it as a composite material would solve a much of the issues.
Nowadays there is research going on related to plastic eating worms which is a million dollar problem solver til then we need an alternative for it.
