Concepts in Sustainability: Paper Made from Sugarcane Waste

When I mentioned 2GreenEnergy’s client Canefields USA in the past, I think I neglected to point out the video on the company’s website, detailing how paper from sugarcane waste is actually made. The world now has access to paper made from carbon-neutral processes that do not come along with bringing down trees. How cool is that?

I suppose I thought that a plant like this in a developing country would look a bit low-tech – but wow, was I wrong. And, even brighter news is that it’s only a matter of time until this technology finds its way to Brazil – and perhaps the US – creating a more sustainable solution for serving the needs of the Western Hemisphere.
