Now techknow investigates the problem with plastic. They throw in the street or throw it in the ocean. We have the technology. I cant touch it . No you cant. So why dont we use it . So you dont know what happens to the plastics you recover . Dr shini somara is a mechanical engineer. Dr. Crystal dilworth is a neuroscientist. Were standing by a pipe marked heated sludge. And im phil torres, im an entomologist. Thats our team. It smells very organic. Now lets do some science. Hey guys, welcome to techknow. Im phil torres and today we are going to be talking trash and a ton of it. Joining me with this trash talk dr. Crystal dilworth, dr. Shini somara. Now first up the water bottle, by some estimates here in the u. S. We use 50 billion of these every year and myth number one is that this is going to be recycled.
