It will take several lifetimes for all of earth’s plastic waste to decompose, when not accounting for new plastics being produced every day. Nanites that can decompose plastics can help save us from this impending doom! https://ourworldindata.org/plastic-pollution
The use of plastics has many benefits – it is affordable, versatile, resistant, and can help reduce other forms of waste – especially food waste. However, when poorly managed it can pollute the environment and our oceans.
Where does the plastic in our oceans come from and what can we do to reduc... Read more
A beer company in Florida is packing beer cans in biodegradable six-pack rings made using waste from the brewing process. The rings are fit for human consumption but can also be eaten by animals when thrown away or decompose completely!
Scientists have invented edible food wrappers made from milk. They are biodegradable and more effective at preventing food spoilage compared to plastics.
Imagine the future of snacking: You grab a cheese stick. After you are done, you can eat its milk protein food wrapper and avoid creating any trash. Next, you reach for a cup of orange juice. When you are finished drinking the juice, you can enjoy the edible cup and have nothing to throw out.
In the UK, you would need to change a law in favour of people rather than business — so not going to happen. “We are legally obliged to deliver all addressed mail, which includes mail that is addressed “To the Occupier” (or with any other generic recipient information), as well as mail that is personally addressed to you by name.”
How do I opt out of receiving any leaflets or unaddressed promotional material?
How about these plastic-eating enzymes?
These nanites can break down microplastics into CO2 and water. So maybe there is hope for our planet yet!

Single-use plastic used to wrap food are amongst the worst contributors to the plastic crisis. Edible plastics that can also decompose when thrown away are the way to go. Check this article here on the benefits of edible food wrappers. https://sciencing.com/can-edible-food-wrappers-solve-the-plastic-crisis-13717334.html
I tried everything in this video, none of it works. They should be sued.
