Did you think of this smooth, dirty, wear-resistant plastic material for a second when you're playing high blocks? There should be no user who can tie a toy to the environment, but LEGO considered it as a business The environmental issues of raw materials, LEGO has officially announced on March 1 part of the building blocks of raw materials from the original petrochemical plastic pure plant materials, but never expected is that they aim to plant materials from Brazil's tropical rainforest cane.
At present, most of LEGO's building block products are ABS plastics derived from petrochemical raw materials, and only a small part is made of traditional polyethylene plastic materials. At the end of 2018, we hope to use softer plants and shrubs in toys. The materials of the building block products are gradually replaced with plant materials. Lego has a long way to go.
For the past 70 years, LEGO has used traditional petrochemical plastics to make bricks. If you want to change raw materials, you must make a huge change in the process. This is a difficult decision for large companies like LEGO. Also need a lot of input.
Lego hopes to tell its children that LEGO will produce their favorite toys without destroying the planet Earth on which they live, and because I use them all for human-grown crops rather than directly from Brazil Rainforest, so it will not damage the rainforest.
The greenhouse effect and all kinds of environmental pollution have been changing our original ecological environment step by step. If LEGO can succeed in saving their "Carbon Footprint" (carbon Footprint, refers to a person or organization in the production of life interaction of carbon dioxide emissions Volume) by about 70%, this technology can undoubtedly be extended to manufacturers all over the world.
Like LEGO, but also look forward to sugarcane LEGO bricks it.
