Waste to Energy

Just in the US alone, every 5 min, 2 Million plastic bottles are

discarded – not recycled –

but discarded, which end up in landfills. 

As of 2004 in the U.S., 850 billion gallons of raw sewage are being 

dumped into waterways every year

Predicting the Future…

“The best way to predict  the future is to invent it.”

Alan Kay

Ignore the “experts”….

“There is no reason for any individuals to have a 

computer in their home”

Ken Olsen, President, 

Chairman and Founder of DEC, 1977

"Everything that can be invented has been 

invented." ‐

Charles H. Duell, Commissioner, 

U.S. Office of Patents, 1899

“Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?”

Harry M. 

Warner, Warner Bros, 1927

Take away…

“It is not because things are difficult that  we do not dare; it is because we do not 

dare that they are difficult” –

Seneca

Only those who risk going too far can  possibly find out how far they can go." 

—T.S. Eliot
