...and it disintegrates in water!

I have mentioned in past posts that I am very sensitive to my impact on the environment and even my environment.
That's not to imply that I am, in any way, good at reducing my impact on the earth and others, it's just that I am highly aware of my obligation to do just that.
That being said, I found an interesting alternative to plastic (eeyuck!) packaging being manufactured in Australia.
This article on Inhabitat reminds us why this is an excellent product. Our dependence upon petroleum runs far deeper than our fuel tanks.
My only concern is that this "plastic" is corn based, meaning that the Monsantos and Novartis/Syngentas of the world will find their way into this somehow.
