Plot twist: it was corn starch based.
that's still bad though. it requires petroleum based processes to grow the corn and then convert the starch into a plastic like substance when the book could have just not been shrink wrapped. i get that you're joking, and i'm being pedantic, but not enough people realize bioplastics are not the solution, they're a gap measure, like EVs, and i'm usingeyour comment as a soapbox
Bioplastics also cause contaminated petroplastic recycling batches, are difficult to compost (my city, like many cities, does not have the facility), and release methane when breaking down in a landfill.
What’s up with cities (in the US) not having the facilities for this? I know it’s not a perfect solution but everyone I see walking their dog in Los Angeles has these compostable bags.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but it sounds like Europe does (generally speaking). Is it a matter of laziness or something else on our part?
building these facilities must be funded by levies, and most jurisdictions vote no on most levies because no one ever feels like they can afford more taxes. really, if the world worked correctly, the richest people and companies would just pay for these things because society benefits them more than the rest of us, and we should receive benefits from society
I guess they could have been wrapped in bulk, but I wouldn't say you can ship books around without any protection.
It could have been an e book though
A paper band is pretty good at protecting a book in transit.
My e-reader is e-waste.
What about cellophane?
