ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Bioplastic

Bioplastic is a kind of plastic made from plants or other living things. It's like regular plastic but instead of being made from things like oil and gas, it's made from things like corn, sugarcane, seaweed and other plant materials. Bioplastic is better for the environment because it breaks down easier and doesn't need to use up our limited resources like oil and gas. It's also usually cheaper than regular plastic so it's a better choice for many businesses.
