Beschreibung

Regular plastics have an extremely low recycling rate of only 9%. The rest ends up in landfills and leaks into our waste, soil and air. As a result, microplastics can be found in the tissue of every living organism on earth. Research shows that an average person consumes up to 5 grams of microplastics every week! MadeRight has created an organic material sourced from fungi that replaces regular plastic and is both durable and has a long shelf life. This game-changing material finally offers the world an alternative to plastics and the terrible pollution that it causes.

Episode Drift Sense: The Science of Pesticide Timing Cover

Drift Sense: The Science of Pesticide Timing

Driftsense is a technology based platform which calculates the complex optimal timing of pesticide application on behalf of growers, so they can make the best-informed choice as to when to spray for optimal results Inaccurate pesticide application can lead to huge losses and damages. On average 75% of sprayed pesticides don't reach their intended target which results in major losses for farmers. In the US alone, the annual damage to growers, agriculture, humans and the environment is a shocking $12 Billion dollars, due to pesticides being off target. Dr Elad Segal the CEO of DriftSense explains the solution he has created to fix this problem. Elad and his team have created an advanced proprietary state-of-the-art system, that takes into account every conceivable variable, and gives each grower the ideal time to spray in order for the pesticides to stay on the intended crops. This solution usually has an immense impact on growers profitably and also an increase in environmental safety which benefits us all.
