How one woman, Ellen MacArthur, was able to get the United Nations, governments, the WEF and the industry together to promote self-regulation instead of binding legislation to solve one of the most important ecological disaster created by men … remains to this day, one of the biggest mystery of all time. I just don’t understand…

New research highlights marine biodegradability of Eastman Aventa™ compostable materials
Looking at the OXO bioplastics trial, EU institutions do not accept studies paid by the producers as they have no legal value. They can only be used as a marketing tool towards other industry players but cannot be used to make claims aimed at consumers risking a greenwashing class action lawsuit. Find the error.

Why China is smarter than EU when it comes to climate policies
EU institutions believe they’re better than the rest of the world. In reality, Europe is an old continent without popular cohesion and vision. China, on the other hand, has that popular project: a vision aimed at the middle classes; not like the EU institutions with their policies that only benefit the elites.

Research validating oxo-biodegradable technology (FREE)
OXO is probably the only sensible technology for the bio-degradation of plastics but the EU commission and MEPs have been corrupted by the compostable plastics industry so we won’t have any of it in Europe. The EU commission prefers to contaminate our food chain with compostable plastics.

EU Sugar report
The EU sugar policy killed the small sugar farmers and enriched the sugar oligarchs. Conscious consumers started to reduce their sugar intake because sugar was addictive and bad for your health… so the sugar billionaires needed to find a new money stream … the biobased economy, biofuels and bioplastics came in handy.
