THE WONDER BRICK

Long description

The goal is to collaborate and reuse some of the trash that is necessary for our health as a race, but without leaving traces in our environment or harming other ecosystems, taking into account the traces that the pandemic left us and is still leaving internationally.   The actual numbers, show that what were once used as syringes, needles, and safe deposit boxes represent more than 144,000 tons of waste, along with other waste such as polymers in various presentations that had and still have simple and useful functions, exceed more than 2,600 tons, are horrifying and cause the numbers to rise almost uncontrollably everywhere you look.   Plastic has demonstrated to us that it can both save lives and contribute to our own demise.   Because all humans have the same needs and not just those in “Third World” nations need to build using ecological bricks, THE WONDER BRICK project aims to create a universal construction brick that can be used in a variety of circumstances.   Our brick aims to implement circular thinking within the already toxic chain of plastic production by converting various types of polymers into flakes that we can later combine and convert into our modular brick through a process that is as sustainable as possible, structured in existing machinery, and powered primarily by renewable energy sources.
