Advanced technologies and joint efforts are crucial for sustainable packaging to achieve the ‘Net-Zero’ goal, according to Prof G D Yadav, former Vice-Chancellor of the Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai.
“Ban on plastics will not yield any significant result. But the solution is to come up with new technologies,” Yadav remarked while speaking at the conclave on ‘Sustainable Packaging Solutions for Net-Zero Future,’ organised by CSIR-National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology (CSIR-NIIST) at its Pappanamcode campus in the city on Wednesday.
Dr C Anandharamakrishnan, Director of CSIR-NIIST, presided over it. The conclave is part of the year-long Golden Jubilee celebrations of CSIR-NIIST, according to an official release here.PTI
