Media Files ===biodegradeable plastic, self wrapping apples, biological plastination ==== "The widespread use of bioplastics could largely reduce the amount of plastic strewn around the world. Traditional petrochemical-based plastics are non-degradable and non-renewable; degradable plastic breaks into smaller pieces in UV light but remains plastic. Then there are two kinds of biodegradable plastic that break down in compost - one from a petrochemical resource, the other from a renewable resource such as corn or wheat, which is known as bioplastic. Bioplastic is by far the most environmentally friendly option. Dr Katherine Dean, of the CSIRO, says corporate firms are now becoming increasingly interested in bioplastics." ref. http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2007/12/are-there-reall.html Please fill all the letters into the box to prove you're human.
