We’ve secured coverage in Newsweek for our client @KingsCollegeLon where scientists have discovered a new way of rapidly recycling bioplastics using a common enzyme used in laundry detergent! #sustainability #KingsScience #environment
🧪 King's scientists (@KingsNMES) are using laundry detergent enzymes to speed up #bioplastic degradation. ♻️ This discovery offers hope for recycling single-use bioplastics used in coffee cups which often end up in landfill. 🔗 kcl.ac.uk/news/new-approach-… #Sustainable #KingsScience

🎄We were delighted to find this @nature research on the science of company Xmas parties since we have our own celebration tomorrow (axe-throwing & a comedy club…) 🍸A good party needs an external location, fun activities & informality. Do you agree? bit.ly/48jtU9b

There is no hiding from the fact that some products ad agencies promote devastate the planet. Yet it's successful campaigns for the likes of cars & long-haul flights that often pay the bills and scoop up awards. It's time for change, the question is how? bit.ly/46Ax2Mg

Whilst it is a limited community that has descended on Bletchley Park today, we should all be aware of the #AI tech that’s becoming part of our lives & take part in the conversations around it. Here is some commentary from our client @odihq. bit.ly/3SomkW6 #allegory
