What is your favorite ice cream flavor? If you said vanilla, then you're in for a surprise! In our latest episode of Get Better at Garbage we're joined by Dr. Jo (Joanna) Sadler, Discovery Fellow at the University of Edinburgh. She's joining us to discuss her innovative work on using bacterial enzymes to break down plastics and turn them into... well, you guessed it, vanilla flavoring!
