Tosti Talks: Plastic Packaging - Preservation or Pollution?

Guest Speaker: Lisanne de Weert

during this talk

Plastic Packaging - preservation or pollution? With the sea flooded by plastic and the entire marine (and even global ecosystem) suffering from the consequences, it seems like an obvious answer. However, looking at the properties of plastics and the global challenge of increasing food demand and food waste, thermoplastic polymers could benefit the environment. What applications are beneficial, and what alternatives exist? Let's discuss.
