SUMMARY:BiOrbic BioBus Tour
DESCRIPTION:The BioBus is a mobile exhibit that will tour Ireland for 5 weeks reaching every county. The exhibit explores our petrochemical economy and heavy reliance on crude oil in many of the products we use on a daily basis. This is followed by an explanation of what the bioeconomy is and how this can help us transition away from fossil fuels towards a more sustainable future. We will be showcasing some bio-based products that are both on the market and in the pipeline. \n \nClick to learn more! \n
