tchotchkes from the Paciic Garbage Patch. In an ideal world, all manufacturing
would be as clean and innovative as the desert-based Solar Sintering process.
3D printing won't be an innately green manufacturing technology unless we
actively seek to make one. If we can tap into 3D printing's unique capabilities
and invent greener printing materials, we will reap environmental beneits in
the form of shorter supply chains and a new generation of optimized products.
