    Glass is a super duper material.

    It’s strong/structural, infinitely recyclable, environmentally inert, it just turns back into sand, food-safe.

    That’s really cool, thanks for sharing!

    That part with the gobs of hot molten glass flying everywhere is very Star Wars like(from about 5:00 to 5:40).

    It also looks super quick, pumps out bottles like crazy!

    Pretty cool video from the council about how glass bottles are recycled in Auckland.
