  • Summary

  • We invite our two AI experts, Tom and Ann, who were 'fed' with the latest research on 'eco-friendly packaging'.

    They explore the complexities of evaluating the environmental impact of bio-based and fossil fuel-based polymers. The discussion centres around the finding that there is no simple answer to which type of polymer is more environmentally friendly.

    The episode highlights a recent study that compared 50 bio-based polymers and 39 fossil-based polymers and found no clear winner in terms of environmental impact.

    The research reveals a significant variation in environmental impacts across all materials, making it impossible to declare any single material as superior.
