Eliminating Microplastics In Pesticides
Shockingly, microplastics are an ingredient used in a wide variety of industries - ranging from agriculture to cleaning to pharma. They’re called “intentionally added microplastics” and they make products more effective.
At the same time, pesticides are a hot topic in farming: while they protect crops from weeds, fungi and insects, long-term exposure to these chemicals can damage the environment. Considering pesticides sometimes use microplastics in their formula, this is a product that is ripe for a Sustainability Champion to disrupt and create an environmentally-friendly alternative!
That’s exactly what today’s guest offers: a biodegradable pesticide that avoids microplastics in order to make agriculture and other industries more sustainable.
In this Episode of Sustainability Champions, I speak with Sean Smith, CEO of Eden Research and Champion of Sustainable Biochemistry.
Eden Research is a publicly-listed company that develops and supplies breakthrough bio-based chemicals and natural microencapsulation technologies for the crop protection, animal health and consumer products industries. Using natural, plastic-free and sustainable ingredients in their agricultural products, they’re supporting green agriculture by protecting high-value crops, improving crop yields and their marketability.
If you’re interested in learning about new technologies that harness the power of nature instead of fighting against it, check out this conversation.
