How Avocado Waste Is Turned Into Plastic | World Wide Waste
Last year, Americans consumed over 6 billion avocados - leaving behind mounds of inedible pits. Now a company in Mexico created a method to transform avocado waste into “bioplastic” - which breaks down fast and requires less fossil fuels to produce.

All companies should produce their own bioplastics based on where the majority of their biological waste is from. There is no point shipping plastics halfway across the globe.

The plastics are produced locally. That’s what makes it so compelling, it can easily be produced anywhere and everywhere. Producing bio plastics takes a lot of energy than producing conventional plastics. The plastics are not the problem, the way we handle the waste is the problem. Instead of wasting time and money on developing such useless short term bio plastics, we should work on how to improve the waste management system

Lets be clear - bioplastic does not breakdown/compost in a landfill unless the temperature is kept above 75 degree, let alone a beach, gutter or forest. When they say bioplastic decomposes faster they mean 75 to 100 years, instead of 150 years.

Well, organic is a little different from biological. Considering it's organic matter that accumulated over centuries it can't really be called biological since the stuff is dead. Biological usually is in reference to living things. Either way, there are spectra everywhere and just cuz you see a correlation doesn't mean they're the same thing; biofuels and biodegradable materials are obviously better for the environment, it's well documented.

Fun Fact (not really): avocado growers in Mexico started welcoming the cartel because they were offering services to these workers such as security for their land, products and themselves that the state failed (as always) to do so. So over time the cartel started to ask for the tax money in exchange for these services. Then they started to become more predatory (not only did they open their portfolio to drugs but wanted to expand to avocados too). Now they do extortion fees and the growers are carrying weapons now 24/7. Just a behind the scenes thing that not everyone knows about

I'm Indian from India. What cookie spoons again? Single use plastic is banned. Apparently the plastic used from garbage bags to delivery take away packaging is BETTER plastic now, or so we are told. Indians even reuse delivery plastics for storage organization etc. But after a point you do throw. They send these forks and spoons made of soft wood these days... 99% delivery parcels don't even send spoons now. You gotta use your own dineware. Reducing on single use cutlery. And I save those to reuse them after washing. I DO NOT THROW the not used bunch of plastic cutlery served in Indian flights. I bring them home even if someone thinks I'm cheap. But it's literally not touched. And would be thrown the next second! I use them at home when I'm taking a homemade meal out in lunch etc. Atleast USE the single use plastic before throwing! Every flight so many cutlery kits are literally thrown, (for example if you choose to eat Indian food by hand like a paratha etc.) My mother was skeptical at first on what will people think? But now even she brings in flight single use plastic cutlery to not be wasteful & not just throw them even without use. I wish more people did that.

Vox answers all my questions that I never had
I read *_"Making plastic from avocado",_* and instantly got kinda mad. Then I saw the full title and I now approve of this.

Mmmmm raw hands handling the cutlery
Great initiative
Can they be made into bottles..for soda, water, beer, milk and vinegar; etc?
So they manufacture bio plastic spoons and stuff but the packaging used for those spoons is pure plastic? 🙃

Simply, Great!!!!!!
This is really awesome
But it still contains plastic. The quick decomposition just means the plastic will enter the water supply faster.

i feel those who would allow the market dynamism to determine when to trade or not are either new in space in general or probably just naive, the sphere have seen far worse times than this, enlightened traders continue to make good use of the dip and pump even acquiring more equities towards trading sessions, l'd say that more emphasis should be put into trading since it is way profitable than hodling. Trading went smooth for me as I was able to raise over 9.2 BTC when l started at 1.5 BTC in just few weeks implementing trades with signals and insights I would advise you all to trade your asset rather than holding for a future you aren't sure about.

You are such an hypocrite writing generic stuff in many videos to get likes and subscribers. Makes everything you write and say just doubtful and puts you as a lier and manipulative person that has no shame.
is the packaging bio plastic too? if not what's the point of trying to reduce plastic usage

It look like as it is normal plastic but it could be bioplastic. if it is plastic then you're right that it is meaningless.
So I'm doing my project this topic, interesting
Slicing avocado pits into thin sheets and mixing it in with tea is a good source of antioxidants.
turning avocado waste into bio-plastics is a fine idea to recycle and reduce pollution.
Should we mention each tree uses HUGE amount of water to make one avocado? Many places where they grow avocado they have made the ground water sink down to scary levels!
This is a very good idea👏

Why are they touching all the utensils with their bare hands. Seems to defeat the purpose of eating with a disposable utensil.

I also get confused when people grab the heads of the disposable spoons or forks. Most people don't seem to care about germs. That being said, my sister reaches for them (utensil box at home) like that after scratching her bare ass under her pants.
