Everything Was Going To Be Beautiful

In recent years, the biggest concern of the so-called environmentalists has been plastics for some reason… While the main environmentalists were blasting their minds to prevent and recycle the plastic, while working within the countless researches, the so-called environmentalists did nothing but blacken the plastic.

Let's use glass instead of plastic, no wood, paper, I think stainless steel is actually the best, while they were dealing with judgment, they said, let's look for ways to prohibit it. They state that it offers a way to extract significant commercial value from just-tenth lignin or in the form of a new renewable plastic. In 2018, UMN's Natural Resources Research Institute (NRRI) announced a $ 3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to NRRI's Wood Products and Bioeconomics Initiative to unlock lignin's potential as a high-value, renewable bioplastic. The goal was to develop a patented process that separates a tree's cell wall compounds (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) to make a plastic that could replace the popular acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS). Lignin will be converted into ABL (acrylonitrile-butadiene-lignin) resin at about $ 1.20 per pound and can compete directly with ABS. Oh well, well !!!

Well, we are very curious about how many trees and plants will be destroyed or even a harsher word will be killed with your permission if it is said that we have succeeded as a result of these researches? Wood-plastic composite (WPC) materials are popular today for decking, railing, fencing and siding. These materials use recycled plastics mixed with wood chips and have become popular building materials over the past two decades due to their nearly maintenance-free benefits.

WPCs have a role to play in being environmentally friendly and as a way to use wood waste with plastic waste. However, so far there is no information as to whether any of the lignin-based bioplastic materials are commercialized to a level that can compete economically with traditional plastics or traditional wood-plastic composites. It should not be hard to guess that making these lignin-based materials is not as cost-effective as conventional polymers. It can take many years for these to become a viable alternative to recyclable plastic materials. In fact, we must really question the wisdom of using the enormous amount of wood and plant material to make a bioplastic that promises biodegradability with the mechanical strength of fossil fueled plastic. Moreover, all of this data is conjecture. We destroy trees with an assumption.

It is impossible not to rebel now. What did plastic do to you, which is affordable in terms of cost, can be used in all areas in terms of usage, comes to our rescue with innovations at our most difficult moment, was thrown into nature by the human being without any crime and then blamed by the human being again? Have you ever thought what would have happened without plastics in the pandemic? Think about it and don't cut down innocent trees again.
