Green chemistry yields a better plastic

Article Abstract:

To synthesize organic molecules from biological systems, as in all other production processes, reducing the number of intermediates can reduce costs and improve yields. Synthesis of unusual compounds directly in plants would probably be the best method to produce bulk commodities at low cost.
