A new man-made island will be built in the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and San Francisco constructed completely out of recycled materials.

The island will help clean up the area, create a new home for local climate refugees and help re-use toxic ocean dumped plastics. It will be developed by innovative architectural company WHIM and will become a floating eco tourist destination complete with buildings, beaches and farms.

Once completed the new island will be the ultimate in eco-tourism with 4 thousand square miles of plastic land for communities to live on.

The developers say that the main aspect to making the project possible is that seaweed must be cultivated as a means of food and medicine. Seaweed will also provide a habitat for local wildlife and help to absorb CO2 that is produced on the new island.
