PLANT PLASTIC, written and directed by Pierson Jacquelin & Jessica O’Byrnea, is a film that explores the benefits of using plant based plastics. It is a great look into the future of materials manufacturing as the world turns to new ideas and technologies to save the health of the planet. It is exciting to think about the day when the new vehicles of the world will be made entirely out of plant based materials allowing them to be just as strong, renewable, and able to perform even better than the industrial age's heavy metal gas sluggers due to the decreased weight. It reminds me of a car that Henry Ford built in 1941, made almost entirely out of plant based materials and designed to run on vegetable oil as a fuel. It's a shame we haven't been building cars like this all along and it makes me wonder, why?
