1. You are working as a technician for a food manufacturing company. The company would like to reduce the amount of plastic in its food packaging by 2025 and is exploring packaging alternatives.  

 

You have been asked to write a report on plant-based packaging for food. Your report needs to summarise the issues of use and disposal of plastic and to encourage the use of plant-based packaging for food.
