A new type of rock cobbled together from plastic, volcanic rock, beach sand, seashells, and corals has begun forming on the shores of Hawaii. These stones most likely formed from melting plastic in fires lit by humans who were camping or fishing. Although anywhere there is a heat source, such as forest fires or lava flows, and abundant plastic debris, there is the potential for the formation of “plastiglomerate”. Once the plastic has fused to denser materials, like rock and coral, it sinks to the sea floor, and the chances it will become buried and preserved in the geologic record increase.

“We make you fear your imperfections, but in fact they are the diamond of your being.”
