The threat of dangerous climate change and the subsequent focus upon how human activity impacts Earth has brought about interesting and innovative times. It seems that a flurry of new ideas and outcomes comes at one from a range of interesting, and unexpected places. At a recent function lunch was served on plates like this one.

From Ecovsion’s website – eco vision bioplates are formed from the outer sheath casing of the Areca Palm tree. (Betel Nut) Known for its medicinal Properties Betel had been extensively cultivated for export for many years. Areca Palms grow in abundance, extensively In South India, where the fallen Sheath was formerly a waste Product that littered naturally occurring forests in the Area.

For a simple, effective, useful and beautiful outcome – find a waste product, develop a simple form and add a shot pressure. Nice one, it is a shame to think that this product is disposable.
