In India, leaves are being converted to fertiliser and farm stubble used to make packaging material – instead of being burned.
Organic waste can be used in a variety of sustainable solutions. But what if you lack the material to implement a solution in practice?
Enter a US-based startup and their platform which allows biological waste to be both traded and sourced. A kind of supplier directory for waste.
The innovation should not only reduce the implementation period for new ideas, but also create new sources of income.
Its potential is, in other words, great. Worldwide, it is estimated that 8 billion tonnes of wasted biomass could be better deployed.
For examples of how, look no further than this clever publication.Â
