In the heart of the Amazon rainforest, scientists discovered something extraordinary — a fungus that eats plastic.

🧪 Pestalotiopsis microspora is not your typical fungus. It can survive entirely on polyurethane, one of the most common (and most persistent) types of plastic — and it does so even in oxygen-free environments, like buried landfills.

This remarkable ability makes it a natural recycler, capable of doing what human-made systems still struggle with: breaking down plastic waste efficiently and sustainably.

🌿 Imagine a world where discarded plastic bottles don’t last centuries — but are decomposed in weeks, thanks to a microscopic ally hidden in the forest floor.

Researchers now hope to harness this species for bioremediation — cleaning up polluted soils, plastic-infested coastlines, and even our oceans.

♻️ Nature already holds the solutions. We just have to learn from it.
