Inspired by natural kynurenine chemicals found in human eyes, Sóliome is revolutionizing sunblock. Traditional synthetic sunscreens harm marine life and persist in the environment. Sóliome's biomimetic, kynurenine-based sunscreens offer an effective, economical, and environmentally friendly alternative.

These innovative sunscreens feature large molecules that remain on the skin's surface for maximum protection. As natural products, they biodegrade quickly and pose fewer risks than synthetic alternatives, protecting both human health and the planet.

Sóliome was a participant in our 2022 Ray of Hope Prize Program. Learn more about biomimicry: biomimicry.org and asknature.org.

Mindy Lubber, President of Ceres, introduces a discussion on sustainability mega-trends. Issues like rapid resource depletion, increased energy demands, and climate change present both significant risks and opportunities for businesses. Addressing these trends necessitates profound shifts in how investors and companies plan, operate, and compete globally.

As sustainability becomes mainstream, more companies are tying compensation to sustainability goals. This session, published May 13, 2014, features insights from the opening plenary of the Ceres Conference 2014 (Boston, April 30). Speakers include Paul Gilding (Environmentalist and Author), Mary O'Malley (Prudential), and Andrew Winston (Author of 'The Big Pivot').

Intropic Materials has developed a groundbreaking solution for rapid plastic degradation. Inspired by nature, they embed enzymes directly into plastics. Protected by biodegradable covers during production, these enzymes mimic "chaperone proteins" to ensure their effectiveness.

When composted, these enzymes quickly break down plastics from the inside out into simpler, biodegradable molecules within hours or days. This eliminates slow microbial breakdown and harmful microplastics, promoting a circular economy or natural degradation in soil and water.
