Caterpillar found to eat shopping bags: A biodegradable solution to plastic pollution?

A common insect larva that eats beeswax has been found to break down chemical bonds in the plastic used for packaging and shopping bags at uniquely high speeds. Scientists say the discovery could lead to a biotechnological approach to the polyethylene waste that chokes oceans and landfills. The caterpillar produces something that breaks the chemical
