The process is grounded in microbial science. These microbes, or methanotrophs, consume methane as their energy source. After 12 years of development, String Bio now produces a gamut of products.

This is what makes battery traceability a consumer issue, and potentially a brake on the development of India's second-hand electric vehicles market. This is before we even consider it a recycling and energy security issue.

Whether you’re ordering food or buying plastic chips, the sustainability of a plastic alternative depends not just on what it is made from, but on what happens to it after use, writes Anjali V Raj
