As microplastics get more scrutiny, demand for glitter that biodegrades in nature is growing. For Bioglitter, which uses plant-based cellulose to make its product, that's a big opportunity.
A bit of glitter is like a bottle of champagne on New Year's Eve: It's all fun and games until the next morning. Traditional glitter is a microplastic, which means most of it ends up in bodies of water after a single use. Earlier this year, the European Union banned the sale of loose-plastic glitter entirely, citing the impacts on the environment.
From greening global trade to reducing the “embodied” carbon emissions generated by building materials to de-fossilizing our economy through innovation in green chemistry and green engineering, Yale faculty and thought leaders participating in COP28 emphasized a multidisciplinary approach to addressing the climate crisis.
