I was going to work this morning when I saw a woman who was around 55 years old having a juice. This juice was packed in a kind of plastic bag as the one in the left side.
At these moment, ideas come to my mind and I thought that it had to be the post of the day.
If we think about it, that woman who was drinking her juice, never thought about the material of the package, process and consequences of chose this juice instead of a tetra pack or glass one.
Why did she chose it then? We may think because of the flavor! but certainly probably because of the design, brand, or even the picture that the pack has printed in.
Whatever the reason is, the fact is that she never thought about if buying this is going to be harmful for the environment or not.
This post is to propose people thinking before buying:
1. Am I sure that I need this?
2. Am I sure that I am choosing what cover my needs?
3. Am I sure that choosing this one I will not do something harmful?
Everyone has the right to drink a juice, but it does not mean that we have the right to do it at any price. Find the way to reduce the damages. Be responsible, be happy.
Small actions, turn into world effect! remember previous post!

Have you ever heard about bioplastic?
It is glad to find news on the Internet where you can read that important companies are taking care of sustainability.on
An important food and beverage company is using bioplastic taps for 4 lines of products in Brazil. This pleasant new made me read more about bioplastics.
"Bioplastics are a form of plastics derived from renewable biomass sources, such as vegetable fats and oils, corn starch, pea starch, or microbiota, rather than fossil-fuel plastics which are derived from petroleum. Some, but not all, bioplastics are designed to biodegrade." Wikipedia.

Nowadays the industry is not highly developed. But it is improving day by day and production of this materials reduces greenhouses gases emission and the energy needed for the production.
We have as well some disadvantages as deforestation and degradation. That has to be under controlled conditions of industrial composting units.
We hope that more important brands care about sustainability and invest to find new ways of packaging that care our planet.
Long way for find the perfect material, but correct way though.
