I think you wildly underestimate the amount of trash we’re be talking about here. This wouldn’t be a rocket, this would be thousands, or hundreds of thousands of rockets. And that’s just the start.

A rocket could lift 100-150 tonnes of trash. We have about 60 billion tonnes of trash.

So, um, 400M rockets.
Yeah, that ain’t happenin’.

Let’s not count this method out just yet. We’re starting with a giant piece of trash first(Elon), and will see how the rest goes.
