How do you deal with plastic bags from the supermarket?Throw them away or recycle
them?Have you ever thought about eating them?
The bags are not harmful to the environment.Humans and animals can safely eat them.
An Indian company has made a bag with natural materials.It looks and feels just like
plastic,but can be broken down(分解)easily.
Ashwath Hedge,the founder of this company,spent four years doing experiments with
12 natural materials.They include potatoes,corn,vegetable oil and bananas.He made the
materials into liquid()and used the liquid to make the bag.
Although the special bag is more expensive than a common plastic bag,it has many
127
advantages.According to the Wall Street Journal,it takes about 1,000 years for common
plastic bags to break down.But this special bag can naturally break down in less than 180
days.It also breaks down in less than a day in water,and in less than a minute in boiling
water.Hedge was happy to show it in his interview,he put a special bag in water and drink
it with a smile.
There are more than 15,000 tons of plastic waste in India every day.But only 9,000
tons are processed.The white garbage has always been a problem for the whole world.
Maybe this special bag could be a solution to the world problem of plastic pollution.
