to Plastic Soup Clean Up
I like always have been thinking about the problem it is suck there.
Some part of my brain is on this project all the time. I do not think
linear I see things from many angles all at the same time. Tonight I
was in bed telling my self to sleep I can write that bit tomorrow I
defocused on the solution I was writing on and BANG hit the Iceberg.
The ship is wrong we need to go back to my first ship a Cargo
Container Ship. First off I switched over to a Tanker Ship thinking of
the start up cost an old oil tanker would be less expensive then a
container ship with all its containers. The Iceberg is Port
Restriction. We are not done until at the end of it's trip the plastic
soup is a marketable product. Using a tanker ship and filling the hull
with plastic we would have to build a processing center on the shore
that can suck the plastic from the hull so all of the plastic soup
would have to be handled by a specialized port. If we return to the
Cargo Container then almost any shipyard can Unload us onto trucks and
we can send the plastic soup inland where the property is less
expensive. The large storage tanks to hold the plastic soup would
become a paved lot to stack cargo Containers waiting to get processed.
other facilities can gear up to handle the raw plastic soup can now be
shipped as many containers as they feel they can handle. Being able to
land at any port and divide up the work load I think will offset the
extra cost of the containers and the price deference between a cargo
container ship and a oil tanker.
Putting the soup in cargo containers will let us gain support for our
operating cost by advertising on the sides of our cargo containers. We
can tell about us and how people can donate to our project, or We can
Credit out Sponsors with Images showing how large companies are
helping us gaining them some good PR. We have a 300 meter Ship that is
room for a lot of Nascar style stickers. Give us $50,000,000 and your
logo will cover the back of all our uniform shirts. $100,000,000 and
we will paint the back doors of all our containers with good PR for
your company. $5,000,000,000 Your PR goes on the Sides of our Ship.
*Dollar amounts will be based on total start up cost, numbers I do not
have at this time.
