Plastic has destroyed the earth; it has consumed a significant part of human life—bottles, bags, dishes, and whatnot; everywhere you turn, you see plastic, plastic, and plastic.
Plastic has polluted the earth filling its depths. Pollution is a problem for both humans and marine life. People often dispose of waste into water bodies
Leading Australian architect Margo Krasojevic’s London-based firm has designed this new floating island resort, which has been called the ‘Recycled Ocean Plastic Resort.’
The floating resort is built with all the plastic that has been collected in the marine water.

Plans are already underway to build in the south Indian ocean near the islands of Keeling (Cocos) off the Australian mainland. He said that it will be constructed with plastic waste from the Indian Ocean. It is planned to be completed by 2025.
The main structure of the floating Island resort is lined with front timber, biodegradable fiber concrete mesh (the fiber that slowly blends into the environment). A walkway will be built with a mesh around it. The island resort is equipped with special equipment similar to oil rigs to keep it afloat and stable on the water.

The design developed expands as it accumulates high-density plastic based on a network of machines and webbings. The island will turn anything from plastic bottles to rubber tires and cement waste into a habitable island by growing mangroves and tough vegetation.

As the island floats in the ocean with vacuums that are lightly sanded and paved. More meshes will be set up around when these walkways are completed. Walkways are made of plastic waste, according to the designer.
The reclaimed island and resort is an ongoing project made of low-carbon materials, such as “ceramicrete.”
There are a number of canopied rooms and campsite land at the resort. Plumbing runs on a solar power plant piped filtered, and distillate marine water around the building.
