Putting a ban on Plastic Bags http://www.interplas.com/ might not be the best answer. Learn 7 facts about why plastic bags are better than paper bags and why recycle, reduce, and reuse is a possible solution to environmental plastic bag concerns.
Plastics is a wonder product. From our daily use items to the products used in medical sector, plastics have made our life much easier and safe. The problem lies with the use of Single Use Plastics (SUP) and its management once thrown away as waste.
Only 9% SUP goes to recycling and majority (79%) of it ends up in ocean and landfills where it enters the food chain and disrupts the entire ecosystem. It harms animals and birds in different ways, causes pollution and also affects health.
The solution lies in the hands of we consumers. The goal should NO plastics in the Environment.
Paper, plastic, or neither? This ubiquitous question posed at the checkout aisle was recently examined in a comprehensive consumer study by Edelman Berland. Amidst a trend of grocery bag regulations in some cities and states, โreusableโ shopping bags which include non-woven polypropylene and low density polyethylene bags, are often emphasized in legislation as an environmentally friendly alternative to paper and plastic bags. The team conducted this consumer survey to determine how often consumers reuse their โreusableโ bags and also find out which bag consumers ultimately pick for groceries.

The non-biodegradable plastic products, which are commonly used in households, cannot be recycled for 400 years. Products like plastic carry bags, if disposed unscientifically, are hard to decompose and are a massive threat to soil cultivation.
Biodegradable substances are those that degrades or break down naturally. Materials like plants, animals, their waste, paper, fruits, flowers, vegetables fall under biodegradable substances, on the other hand, rubber, plastic, chemicals, paint plastic falls under the category of the non-biodegradable items.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
ย
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Why Is the World Not Using Hemp Plastic, Yet?
Hemp plastic (https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/the-importance-of-hemp-plastic)ย can be used to
produce a bunch of items in homes, electronics, cosmetics, cars, and even toys. It offers a whole
range of opportunities, not just opportunities but biodegradable opportunities. It has all it takes to
be the new plastic.
Imagine a world that would not be riddled with non-biodegradable items, a world with items made
from hemp plantsโฆ that world might be possible with hemp plastic.
Climate scientists will also agree with this, hemp is a miracle crop that needs to be in wider use, if
not to heal people, then to make the environment cleaner.
There are several barriers keeping hemp from being the plastic that the world needs. These
barriers have made hemp plastic difficult to produce in mass quantity, hence extremely expensive
for those that want to consider it.
Read on to know more about these barriers.
Pollution Due to Fossils Fuel Plastic
The world is being destroyed gradually by the billions of plastic waste on land and water.
These popular plastic items remain in the environment without losing form. They even creep into
the food chain in more ways than is desired causing negative effects on the health of humans and
animals in the ecosystem.

Fossil fuels have a major part to play in the current global warming trend being experienced
globally.
An uninhabited coral island in the South Pacific was searched and about 38 million units of plastic
waste were found. That's an uninhabited area, what number would we expect to find if a busy and
populated location like America is searched.
The University of Tasmania researchers who carried out this study are supported by the UK's Royal
Society for the Protection of Birds. One of the researchers, Jennifer Lavers expressed her alarm in
her interview with The Guardian.
The marine scientist has traveled to some of the farthest islands in the world to make research on
the surrounding water bodies. She mentioned that all Islands she has visited have the same
backstory. The beaches are filled with evidence of human pollution. From microplastics to tiny
fragments of plastics, the water bodies are littered with all sorts of pollutants. These tiny materials
are often consumed by the marine life present in these water bodies and islands.
In 2014, National Geographic revealed that the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is filled with millions of
tiny plastic particles.
Hemp Plastic
Agricultural hemp is a non-psychoactive cannabis plant that can be used for various options like
cloth, paper, plastic, and even medicine. This golden plant has been found to serve as an
alternative to fossil fuel plastics.
Long before fossil fuel was discovered and processed into plastic materials, cellulose fibers
obtained from organism sources were used to create plastics. Hemp is composed of 65-70%
cellulose, other wood sources contain less than 50% cellulose. This factor makes it eligible to be
used as raw material for biodegradable plastics that have relative sustainability.
Hemp cellulose fibers are a good source for many non-petroleum-based plastics like cellophane,
rayon, celluloid, and other forms of related plastics.
Hemp plastics are not fully made from hemp. Manufacturers combine hemp cellulose with other
plant sources to create composite bioplastics. 100% hemp plastics are difficult to locate
(https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/hemp-bioplastic-all-your-cannabis-products-should-come-in-
hemp-plastic-and-wrapping-right). Composite bioplastics have high strength and rigidity which
makes them suitable for constructing musical instruments, boats, and cars.
For Now, Hemp Plastic Is Not Enough To Solve The World's Pollution Problem
At last 60% of all plastic products in the world are made from polymer resins. Everyday products
like plastic bottles are made from the polymer resin known as Polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

Hemp plastic is promising, however, the right technology to use in the mass creation of this
product is not ready. Advocates for a less polluted world believe that someday in the future,
customers would be able to purchase products packaged in 100% hemp-based containers.
Coca-cola is one of the first companies to experiment with 100% plant-based bottles. Due to the
cost of production, they were unable to adopt these bottles on a large scale. Their commercially
available products are made with less than 30% plant-based materials. The remaining raw
materials used are gotten from conventional fossil fuel bases.
The race to creating the first viable 100% plant-based bottle is on and the winner stands to make
millions of dollars in sales. The good news about this is that someday in the future, PET bottles will
be replaced. As many corporations are investing heavily into these researches and experiments,
the future may be nearer than we think.
The method of disposal matters
Hemp plastic and other plant-based plastic materials may not biodegrade if they are tossed into
landfills. This means these materials can still be a source of pollution on land and in oceans.
Scientists claim that hemp microplastics can cause extreme problems if thrown excessively into
the oceans and other water bodies.
The proper method to dispose of these biodegradable plastics is to transport them in bulk to
commercial composting facilities.
Another problem is that these facilities are expensive to construct, and as such, they are not
available to everyone. This means that while companies and scientists are working hard to
produce safer and cheaper substitutes for plastic, people have to develop the right manners for

disposing of all productsโbiodegradable or not.
Bottom Line: The Cost and The War On Drugs Will Cause Hemp Plastic to Remain A Luxury
Product
Countries around the world buffer the cost of fossil fuels with subsidies. Due to the limited
legislation of cannabis/hemp plants worldwide, the majority of these countries refuse to keep
hemp prices low with subsidies.
The war on drugs is a big hindrance to the growth of hemp infrastructure. Countries have to think
beyond this level and consider the other benefits that could follow if hemp is planted for medicinal
CBD and also for their fiber content.
As technology improves, the prices of hemp-based products will come crashing; so far it is
supported by increased cultivation of these plants. Fortunately, hemp requires fewer pesticides to
grow well and it leaves a lesser environmental footprint than other common crops.

HOW TO
Photoperiod Manipulation - The New Cannabis Cultivation Trend?
The natural seasonal changes work well for cannabis grown outdoors but those grown indoors have to be carefully influenced to
achieve the same results in terms of the plant health and yield. This is where photoperiod manipulation comes in as growers have
to artificially generate the light cycle for the plants with the aid of special lights and timers.
