In March our team could travel throught five Brazilian states studying the science of cloning trees for cellulose production. These new clones can be much more efficient, producing more biomass in a smaller area; they need less water and can resist climate change better. Today, cellulose from these planted trees produce over 5 thousand different products – from medicine to food, from clothes to cosmetics. These products can replace plastic and other fossil-fuel-based ones and they are also biodegradable.
