Scientists produce biodegradable plastic made from fish waste
‘When we start the process, there is a faint kind of smell, but that disappears,’ explains Francesca Kerton, lead project investigator

Scientists working on an alternative to polluting plastic have discovered a biodegradable material derived from fish waste that would otherwise be thrown away, which could be used in a variety of products including packaging and clothing.

Talks with the Archaeological Service are ongoing in the desire to have the 'I Love Kefalonia' sign back in place by the de Bosset bridge. If not successful the second choice is where the cruise ships dock. The main square and Post Office square were also considered by the Tourism Committee but not favoured.

Not everyone is happy! Calls for the sign to be scrapped and recycled into environmentally friendly waste.
