How do you vacuum plastic from a beach?

Engineers in Canada have devised a machine they say can clean small pieces of plastic from Hawaii's "Trash Beach"

Some of you guys may need to find a plastic microbead alternative when you engage in the dress-in-drag role play shenanigans at Grindstone, Psycho FF, etc.  You may be forced to clean up and beautify naturally.
