I get a ton of junk mail, which is made primarily of paper.
I do a lot of dishes.
Sometimes I want to just screw the dishes and use paper plates, but I believe doing dishes is more environmentally sound.
I could solve both of these problems if I had a simple way to turn junk mail -> paper plates.
Problems:
1) I want my plates to be clean
2) I want the process to be easy and sufficiently energy conserving that it represents a net gain over the current system
