Pretty cool new biofiber - agraloop - made from food waste

From Cool Hunting article: "Agraloop, though, isn’t just the final product. It is a separate entity from its output, the Agraloop BioFibre. Instead, it is a closed-loop system designed for eco-efficiency: the original fibers are dry-processed; the farms use organic fertilizer; the processing centers run on bioenergy and employ recycled wastewater; and the final product is born from a system that fuels itself, and produces zero waste. Plus, the system contributes to the health and wealth of the region the waste is sourced from—improving soil health (by limiting burns and lifting waste off fields), suppressing weeds, offering bioremediation and implementing a cooperative farming collaborative wherein farmers receive compensation for material that’s otherwise worthless."
