Happy Friday BESTers,
I always enjoy seeing unique uses of food waste. This
article discusses a new process that can convert coffee grounds
into fiber for clothing. It claims the process avoids many of the
problems associated with typical fiber production. While there
may be limited applicability of this on the large scale, these
innovations show that many different sectors are beginning to tap
into society's food waste as a resource.
