Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Activated Carbon as a Reinforcing Material for Starch Bioplastics. ABSTRACT Eco‐friendly starch‐based bioplastic films reinforced with activated carbon (AC) were produced using green plantain starch in its native and heat‐moisture treatment (HMT) forms to overcome typical limitations of starch materials, such as low mechanical strength and poor water ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Global legal frameworks seek to ensure that benefits arising from the use of biological resources are shared fairly, yet their practical application—particularly where plant materials and Indigenous knowledge are involved—remains challenging. This article presents a case study modelling a pathway for ethical research and commercialisation of Indigenous

Past, present and future of local crop evolution
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production
Vietnam Journal of Chemistry, EarlyView.Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines a wave of Orientalism‐inspired food commercials that appeared on television in France between 1975 and 2000. Older commercials for couscous were more banal, emphasizing a given product's superiority or affordability. Around 1975, however, there was a concerted shift in the advertising; new spots contained exoticized ...
