"Scientist and amateur beekeeper Federica Bertocchini picked parasitic wax worms from the honeycomb of her beehives and left them sitting in a plastic bag.
When she returned to the bag, it was riddled with holes and many of the worms had escaped.
It was that chance discovery that led her to collaborate with scientists at the University of Cambridge in England to unearth the possibility of using worms to munch through the world's plastic problem."
I kind of like the idea that nature has its own solution to the toxic plastic pop-cultural world of children's (and adult's) entertainment.
Those guys pictured above better hope that their home is wax worm free.
It's good to see that nature isn't just another brick in the artificial wall;-)
Let's hope Mother Nature teaches the toxic pop-cultural consumer world a lesson when it comes to conforming with it;-)
