I picked this video because I wanted to see what people thought was the solution to plastic waste. In the video two twins talk about a bio-plastic that degrades and is compostable. Although there are many bio-plastic that already are these things, the difference with this bio-plastic is they're more compostable, and when they are thrown into the ocean they can be eaten by marine life.
The twins, Dane and Jeff Anderson are the co-founders of the company full cycle. Full cycle is a bio-plastic company that turns organic waste into useful, reusable materials. They make bio-plastics because conventional plastic are made from oil, and coal, so it just sits where dumped, and doesn't degrade.
Lots of companies have already created a plethora of bio-plastics. Bio-plastics are plastics that are biodegradable, and breakdown so they don't harm the earth. A lot of bio-plastics re made but not many can be reused over and over again. Most bio-plastics when used and thrown away just dergade and that's the end of it.
Nothing of the video is really new knowledge. Although, I didn't know plastic could turn into a food substitute. Also that organic waste can turn into plastic, so a lot of food waste and trash can turn into plastic. This type of organic plastic can be reused again and again, and if not found turns into the food.
