Puma, a German sports and shoe company, is on a mission to reduce its carbon footprint. It recently unveiled “Clever Little Shopper,” a new reusable shopping bag made out of cornstarch that will decompose in a compost pile in three months. If that’s too long for you or you don’t compost, it can also be dissolved using warm water.
Crazy, right? I’ll admit that even though I am concerned about possible contamination to our drinking water, I kind of want to try it out.
Do you think that a dissolvable reusable bag is a good idea?
