ππ»ββοΈ TIL: β»οΈπ§ͺ Researchers at #Aarhus University in #Denmark converted #polystyrene from #Styrofoam cups, takeout containers, and CD cases into a solid material that captures COβ from #air and smokestacks.
The two-step process adds amines to the #plastic, creating a sponge that grabs COβ when cool and releases it when heated for reuse.

CW: Online event 12th June about "Soil health and EU competitiveness"
I received this invitation. (comments at the end)
------------------------------------
Dear Colleagues,The first part of the 5th EUSO Stakeholders Forum will be an online event on 12th June, focussing on the topic "Soil health and EU competitiveness". During this event, case studies from the private sector will show how healthy soils can promote competitiveness in terms of the three pillars:
a) closing the innovation gap
b) decarbonisation and competitiveness
c) reducing excessive dependenciesThe event includes presentations from the biotechnology sector, agribusiness, banking-financial sector, remediation industry, start-ups, carbon farming, development of clean products and retail industry.
More information as Agenda, Speakers and Registration can be found in the page:
https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/euso/5th-euso-stakeholders-forum
Kind Regards,
Panos PANAGOS, PhD.Scientific/Research Officer
Project Leader of EU Soil Observatory (EUSO)-----------------------------------
My thoughts:
Ok, we need urgently more awareness about soils. We need more #OrganicAgriculture, #RegenerativeAgriculture, #AgroecologicalTransition, #CommunitySupportedAgriculture and much more. What we *definitely* don't need, is a meeting with NOT A SINGLE FARMER, but people from Syngenta, Bayer, NestlΓ© and a bunch of other industry representatives to allow them to show that they are trying soo hard to protect our environment while they do everything they can to sabotage meaningful policy changes. Venture capital funded Start-ups and old villains are definitely not the structural change the agrifood-system needs.Maybe it will still be an informative event, who knows.
Thank you for listening.

It seems that, as with the introduction of new animals (#neobiota, e.g. rabbits to #Australia) the introduction of new plants( #neophytes*) can be a huge source of disruption regional #ecosystems as well.
After reading through the aforementioned article about #grasslands, I now begin to understand the complexities involved.
