10 things…

I’m really enjoying this moment right now. 1. A fun and fascinating photo series by Rune Guneriussen.

2. Aliyah said, “Mommy, when you take my baby brother out of your belly, can he sleep in my bed?” It’s the cutest thing ever. 3. Wearing sandals outside in February. (It's the joy of traveling.)

4. Freshly made juices, created by my little girl—of course with a little help from me. It’s so rewarding to see her getting involved in something healthy. 5. I came across Tea & Jam’s Grateful Project. There are so many vibrant and inspiring photos that make me excited to go home and capture more moments with my family.

6. I love wearing stylish and comfortable slippers around the house and even in my hotel room. Nothing beats the feeling of cozy feet, except maybe my husband’s hands. 7. The idea of a home birth with a midwife and watching the documentary *The Business of Being Born* has been on my mind a lot lately.

8. My brother Jason and Michelle’s wedding was full of energy and joy. They even had the Dixie Cups’ "Chapel of Love" playing as the wedding party walked down the aisle. It was pure magic.

9. I treated myself to a deep conditioning hair treatment. Sometimes, we all need a little pampering—and my hair definitely needed it.

10. Any time I get to chat with Aliyah on iChat is a special moment. It’s amazing how much she’s growing up, and I cherish those little conversations.

There’s something so real and heartfelt about these small, everyday joys. Whether it's a funny conversation, a beautiful photo, or just the comfort of being at home, these moments add up to make life feel rich and full.

Imported Bio-based Plastic Resin

Chemical plastic products bring people all kinds of convenience, but also bring unimaginable trouble. As some waste plastics will not degrade under natural conditions, the combustion will release harmful gases, causing difficult pollution to the ecological environment. So scientists around the world are starting to develop self-destructing, or autolytic, plastics that can break down on their own to solve the problem. Some call it "green plastic". Companies in many countries have introduced their own biodegradable plastics. Biologists at the University of Mitzgan in the United States first proposed the idea of "growing" degradable plastics. Using potatoes and corn as raw materials, they inserted the plastic's genetic material so that it could be artificially grown without harmful ingredients. Imperial Chemical Forests USES bacteria to make sugars and organic acids into biodegradable plastics. The method is similar to the fermentation process used to produce ethanol, except that the bacteria, alkaloids, turn the feed into a plastic called PHBV. Bacteria accumulate the plastic as a store of energy, just as humans and animals store fat. When the bacteria have accumulated as much as 80% of their body weight in PHBV, they break down the cells with steam to collect the plastic. PHBV has properties similar to polypropylene, a material that is stable even in humid environments after being discarded, but which degrades into carbon dioxide and water in the presence of microorganisms.
