Then legislators tie themselves in knots trying to differentiate natural polymers from synthetic polymers for the purpose of biodegradation.

[Adrian Higson @biobasedchem]

NGO supporters of #compostable polymers (to replace #plastic) follow the mantra that plastics aren't #biodegradable, manufacturers of compostable polymers classify themselves as bio plastic producers. See the problem?

Our MD @FotheringhamIan will be a panellist at this @BSI_UK hosted event @COP26 next week. Discussions will focus on how IB is a key enabler of #decarbonization and how standards can underpin #innovation, support and encourage new #partnerships and #investment.

[BSI UK @BSI_UK]

Are you involved in industrial #biotech? Sign up for the live stream for our event on 3rd Nov which will explore the role of standards and innovation in achieving Net Zero. Part of the @scotgov Climate Ambition Zone events for COP26.

Interesting new report discusses embedded carbon in construction, any area where biotechnology can make a real difference?

[Royal Academy of Engineering @RAEngNews]

NEW: The construction sector must move further and faster to curb carbon emissions.

See the recommendations in the new report from our National Engineering Policy Centre: https://t.co/I2JHhwAWtY #EngineeringZero

Great to the debate on the use of biomass and net zero being developed.

A circular economy for the 5 most commonly used materials would help reduce the equivalent of all the emissions from today’s transport. That’s 9.3 billion tonnes of CO2 eq. out of the air.

Will the Covid act as a catalyst to accelerate the adoption of biotech by society?

The #biotech sector has been at the forefront of fighting the pandemic, from underpinning strategic research to its application in pharmaceuticals and drug production.

There is no vaccine for climate change. Biotechnology is key to help us reach our NetZero targets and slow global warming.
