prosthetic hand, for example, will cost between $3,000-4000, while a 3D printed hand, made from recycled plastic, will cost around $200.

HOW WE CAN HELP
start a recycle plastic charity-esc thing
put filters around beaches to help keep people safe and collect plastic
put vacuums in the ocean to collect waste. Then filter for plastic. (other waste go's to other recycle compenys)
