[Garvey]

There is a technology out there that can replace Styrofoam packaging one of the worlds biggest polluters - most landfill in the world contains a minimum 25% of the damn stuff. Now you can have sustainable packaging made from mycelium - the vegetable part of mushrooms. After you've watched the video (see link below) think about how we as gardeners, as its gardeners who would benefit most, could raise awareness of this world changing technology.

It sounds similar to what Lush uses in their packaging,a non-GMO corn based bioresin that dissolves in water. Awareness is already about as companies switch to compostable packaging. You could look at how they advertise it?
