Biodegradable breakthrough: Plastics that don't create microplastics or make us sickBiodegradable plastics represent a monumental step toward resolving the persistent issue of plastic pollution, according to research from the University of California San Diego, in collaboration with Algenesis. The study reveals that plant-based polymers can completely biodegrade at the microplastic level in less than seven months. This discovery not only addresses the pressing environmental challenge posed by traditional plastics and microplastics but also signals a new age of eco-friendly materials. A growing environmental and health crisis The pervasive nature of microplastics, tiny fragments shed from everyday plastic...
