Bio-based plastics are made from renewable resources such as plants, sugarcane, cornstarch, and vegetable oil. These plastics are designed to have a lower carbon footprint than traditional petroleum-based plastics made from renewable sources. However, they typically retain the same issues that regular plastics have, such as Persistent Plastic Particulate Pollution. Soil and marine biodegradable plastics,...
Yes, that is correct. Soil and marine biodegradable plastics can help eliminate Persistent Plastic Particulate Pollution (PPPP), a significant environmental concern. PPPP refers to the accumulation of plastic particles in natural environments, such as oceans and waterways, that do not degrade over time. Traditional plastics can take hundreds of years to decompose. During this time,...
