Scientists have discovered a group of microbes that can 'eat' plastic at low temperatures., This is new because before we only knew of microbes that break down plastic at high temperatures, but the ocean is cold., How did scientists find the plastic-eating microbes?, Researchers put bacteria and fungi on plastics and let them sit in the cool and dark to see what would happen., What did the results show?, More than half could break down biodegradable plastics., Why is this good news for recycling?, Heating requires energy, so it is expensive, but the cooler temperature makes it more affordable.
