Europe in particular has an opportunity to lead this, with the on-going revisions to bio-economy strategy and subsequent legislation and activities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He continues, &#8220;Many solutions already exist but have scarcely been considered. For instance,\u00a0the treaty Chair\u2019s latest text\u00a0ignores bio-based plastics as viable plastic alternatives. Yet there are solutions like lignin-based plastic that delivers the same functional benefits as conventional fossil-based plastics, fits into existing recycling schemes, and significantly reduces plastic emissions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s about combining this with upscaled recycling technologies and activities that allow plastics to be recycled at a faster rate, and we can tackle plastic emissions at the source whilst moving towards a more circular and bio-based economy.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fredrik concludes, &#8220;Of course, this is but one of the many ways in which we can come together to tackle the global plastic problem, but we can no longer wait for a perfect treaty. It\u2019s about acting now, with the tools that are already available to us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em><strong>interplasinsights<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iranpolymer\/Baspar With over 99% of plastics still made from fossil oils globally, Lignin Industries is focused on eliminating global fossil dependency by reducing the fossil content within plastic.
