Biddle has invented a way to separate\u00a0plastics out of trash and recycle them. His invention has HUGE implications for our future. This is why, when you see a new plastic product made from recycled plastic (like a new printer), you&#8217;ll think of Mike Biddle, reach your hand out and buy what he&#8217;s selling.
