Remember how cute robot WALL-E turned trash into bricks? The Clear Drop Soft Plastic Compactor does the same for unrecyclable plastic wrappers and bags, keeping them out of the landfill. It's $1,400 over two years (!) but that includes shipping your plastic across the country to be processed, and free warranty replacements for the machine. But like in WALL-E, the bricks might not be as smart as they initially seem! More on that in our full story at The Verge; senior science reporter Justine Calma tag-teamed it with me.
