The dirty truth about bioplastics - and how to (dis)solve it (13:53)

Important comment by
@michaela564: "Another point you never mentioned, is that the amount of land required to grow bio-plastics to replace oil based plastic consumption is enormous and unrealistic. Therefore the best option is for us to just reduce our plastic consumption at the end of the day."

@marsden Exactly! Same here in California. #CompostablePlastic is neither #compostable nor #recyclable (as plastic), so it ends up going to #landfill. The only positive is that it’s not supporting the oil industry, and will eventually break down without adding to the #microplastic problem (I think).

I’m looking for a “commercial composting” facility where I can take my plant-based packaging. So far no luck. :-(
