Plastic sugarcane - the crop of the future? � ABC Wide Bay Qld:
"In ten years time, the rolling paddocks of sugar cane throughout the Wide Bay could be fifteen percent plastic."
I can't get my head around this at all. Apparently GM sugar cane can grow plastic in the leaves which can be harvested and used for plastic commodities. It's supposed to be biodegradable but at this moment in time they are still getting the leaves to produce enough harvestable plastic!! I have heard of plastic flowers, but this is crazy!
