BendiNewsTest: These functioning computer chips are made out of wood

Hi,

This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.

Thanks

These functioning computer chips are made out of wood

Even if you don’t love technology, it’s impossible to get away from. Microchips have escaped the realm of laptops and smartphones and are popping up in common appliances like TV’s, some refrigerators, microwaves, watches and more. But when these things reach the end of their life, it leaves behind a vast amount of electronic waste. What if those computer chips were biodegradable and made from wood? Imagine the impact it could have for the environment.
