Plastic waste crisis isn't just a Nigeria or African issue, it is a global issue, hunting even the best of countries.
It needs quick solutions, so that if not recycled, it is still safe to be on our soil. This is what @na_wrap is about.
#PlasticsTreaty#plasticalternative
A look inside the City of Santa Cruzโs recycling center reveals uncomfortable truths about America's plastic waste crisis, where nearly a third of recycled items ultimately end up headed to the landfill. https://t.co/8gVHoSu2ZT
Africa does not only need more electricity
Africa needs productive-use clean energy systems that power real local economies.
YucaEnergy is a solution that converts agricultural waste into usable clean energy for enterprises

@forallcurious Cassava bag has been around for a long time, though
Not sure what 'developed a bag made from Cassava...' means
The decomposition is a great thing anyway, and depending on the components of the bag, which majorly should be Cassava starch, it's hoped that it's safe for the fishes.

@yucachain Congratulations ๐
Well-done on your efforts to make cassava a strategic crop it was created to be.
We are rooting for you.
Let's make some plastic from cassava once it's liberated ๐ซ
Well-done, visionary leader @Pee5ivePen
With cassava, we can create alternatives to PET-based plastics, too.
Win-Win
Let's collectively make cassava great again so we all can not only eat good but also be confident we are not ingesting microplastics without food.
We'll save our marine life too, hence, our seafood.
Help us strengthen Nigeria's cassava value chain.
Weโre on a mission to reduce post-harvest losses and increase everyone's profit.

@Naija_farmers
Anyone with regards to the environment, and also the marine life, will take plastic pollution serious.
Cassava, a crop produced by Nigeria more than any other country in the world, has proven to be a great alternative to our conventional PET-based plastics.
Check out @na_wrap
Plastics decomposing in less than 365 days (a year) is a real win for the industry as efforts to transition from single-use plastics strengthens across multiple countries in the globe.
Using agricultural material is even more win.
#plasticpollution#bioplastic#plasticfree
Quite impressive.
Biobased products are the way forward, really.
They don't take years to decompose and they don't return as microplastics or nanoplastics.
Similar to what @na_wrap is working on.
Cortec has scored big on biobased content with the launch of its latest bioplastics product - Eco Works 100.

"Because it comes disguised as convenience." That is what PET-based plastics are.
They are very cheap to make yet they don't degrade easily and end up clogging our environment, waterways, drainages, and water bodies.
Biodegradable is the smarter way forward, this is @na_wrap.
Biodegradable plastics are really the way forward.
Bioplastics look exactly like petroleum-based plastics, feel like them, act like them, but just a single differentiator, unlike them, bioplastics leave us and breaks down within shot period.
PET-based plastics take years.
@Matt_Camenzuli The Coca-Cola Companyย is widely recognized as the largest single-use plastic polluter globally.ย This is based on annual brand audits that track discarded plastic waste around the world.ย Other companies frequently cited as major plastic polluters includeย PepsiCoย andย Nestlรฉ
@newstart_2024 But single use plastics that pollute the World are ok.....
400 million tonnesย of plastic are produced annually, and half of this is single-use plastic.ย This translates to a significant amount of plastic waste, with an estimated 11 million tonnes ending up in the oceans each year
