How "Bio" Is Bioplastic?
from Talk That Science Hosted by Talk That Science
It is almost impossible to imagine the world without plastic. Plastic is everywhere around us! However, nowadays there is so much plastic pollution in the world that it has become one of the biggest problem for nature and humanity. This has led to the development of alternatives in recent years. One of which you may have heard is bioplastic. But how much of the current bioplastics are actually "bio"? How much better are they for the environment? We talk with Maria Murcia Valderrama, PhD student in polymer chemistry and specialized in bio(degradable) plastics, to seek answers to these important questions. — Tracklist — 1.
