Birth of green floaty The birth of green float is from the
Burj Khalifa the worlds tallest andcostliest building, which floats on thebanks of Dubai.

M y proposal A s per the new records there is about 170 tonnes of plastic waste in the pacific ocean . It is adversely
affecting the food chain and is responsible for theextinction of many marine species in order to avoid that we should recycle that plastic and turn it into sheets thatfloat on water and then building up a city on thosesheets
