This Mexican researcher has discovered a way to turn cactus leaves into a material with similar properties to plastic. It works like plastic but it's made from cactus and fish can eat it. Crucially, she says it's not toxic and is biodegradable.

How can we contact the researcher? I think if universities around the world can create partnerships with this innovators many projects can be develop more fast.

@guillermoperalta6659 2 года назад

Faster, and also the governments can help people but they won't.

Wish I knew what that non toxic special mix is.

@AutoFirePad 4 года назад

Whatever it is, it does not require cactus juice, just water.

@CTimmerman 4 года назад

Maybe white vinegar or more concentrated acetic acid.

@oscarbear7498 4 года назад

Enroll in chemistry at your local University. You can probably make a better mix ;)
