The filler is sourced from plant waste that would otherwise be landfilled, which in turn would create methane, a greenhouse gas more potent than carbon dioxide.

For example, a plant
grows, a worm eats the plant, a bird eats the worm, then the bird eventually dies
and its nutrients are absorbed by the soil—where a plant grows again.
You can find ideas
applying this circular ecosystem to modern economics and manufacturing as far
back as post-World War II.
But it’s more than just transitioning to
renewable energies: it’s designing out waste and pollution before production and
manufacturing even begin.
