A Pennsylvania high schooler who is developing biodegradable fishing lures to cut down on plastic pollution has received international recognition for his invention.⁠ ⁠ Ethan Albright, a lifelong fisherman and a student at Hempfield High School, took third place at the International Science and Engineering Fair in May, after winning a local science fair with the same project in March. He’s also caught fish on the lures. Albright’s bioplastic project is encouraging for more eco-conscious anglers, since plastic is one of the most impactful and prevalent pollutants in our waterways today.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #Pennsylvania #fishing #fishingtrip #fishingseason #fishingbait #fishinglure #biodegradable #bioplastic #outdoors #nature #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: Ethan Albright⁠ Story by: dac.collins
