That is a huge amount of waste.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that rice husk turns into compost in 90 days while plastic takes 20-500 years? I get disturbed just thinking of it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-8777\" src=\"http:\/\/vaish.sengupta.net\/of-cloves-and-capers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/cache_2453357083.jpg\" alt=\"cache_2453357083\" width=\"363\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vaish.sengupta.net\/of-cloves-and-capers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/cache_2453357083.jpg 567w, https:\/\/vaish.sengupta.net\/of-cloves-and-capers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/cache_2453357083-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 363px) 100vw, 363px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>OLPRO have made some fabulous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.olproshop.com\/collections\/olpro-husk\">tableware products<\/a> &#8211; plates, mugs, cutlery and storage boxes-\u00a0\u00a0 all from that tiny husk of rice.
