Scientists turn plastic waste into water-harvesting material

Materials chemists have developed a method to convert plastic waste into an adsorbent material capable of harvesting water from the atmosphere. The approach gives discarded plastic a second life while addressing water scarcity, drawing attention for tackling two environmental problems at once: plastic pollution and access to clean drinking water.
Why now: The dual promise of recycling plastic waste and producing drinking water makes the research newly newsworthy.
