The novel resin can be used for a variety of other applications. The team produced cultured stone, by mixing the resin with different minerals, that could be transformed into household objects such as countertops and sinks. "We’ve recently made a bathroom sink with the cultured stone, so we know it works," said Dorgan. The recovered material can also be crushed and mixed with other plastic resins for injection molding, which is used to make laptop covers and power tools.
Next, the researchers hope to make some moderately sized blades for field testing. "The current limitation is that there’s not enough of the bioplastic that we’re using to satisfy this market, so there needs to be considerable production volume brought online if we’re going to actually start making wind turbines out of these materials," Dorgan said.
First it was to eat bugs, now it's eat the blades from wind turbines. What next? Will it be cannibalism?
Just stop!

It's horrible the way it sounds. Would anyone venture them to their kids, after trying him/herself first? Who will then recycle all those crappy gummy bears? When in the food stand they look terribly repulsive enough let alone recycled from the turbines. Total madness!
Sounds terrible for our health 10/10 would try it
Uh...No!
Totally mind blowing
Woow!!
