Interactive Packaging?

Interactive Packaging is a term that has been around for a while and taken on many forms over the years.

Companies and brands will apply that label to everything from an RFID tagged package to a textured or embossed SBS box that draws the consumer in with a "special interactive" feeling or sensation when they pick the box up off the shelf.

However, there are now technologies like ScanLife, Augmented Reality and others that finally give the brand and consumer the chance to be interactive either in store or at home with smart appliances.

There has been a lot of discussion recently on the Department Of Energy’s upcoming disbursement of energy related stimulus money.

The DOE has even divided the general allocation of energy grants into 10 categories:
• Energy Efficiency: $5 billion
• Greening Federal Bldgs: $4.5 billion
• Renewable Energy: $2.5 billion
• Smart Grid: $4.5 billion
• Clean Coal: $3.4 billion
• Next-gen Biofuels: $0.8 billion
• Basic Science: $1.6 billion
• Batteries: $2 billion
• Advanced R & D: $0.4 billion
• Nuclear Cleanup: $6 billion

As the founder of Excellent Packaging & Supply, I have been interested in producing domestically all of the products we now have to bring in from China. We market our BioMass Packaging® foodservice program nationally to mass feeders. Although we have plenty of Sugarcane Bagasse sitting in huge piles in Louisiana and Florida, we have to bring in plates made from sugarcane in China.
Ag waste materials (ultimately any biomass) are cheap and available feedstocks for both fuel and packaging. These would be green jobs, however the infrastructure for producing these products does not exist in America.

After reaching out to the new White House to let them know we would devote our volume to products made domestically nothing is happening. Where is all the stimulus money going?

The technology for turning any biomass into a plastic chemical precursor is right around the corner. Every region has its biomass that grows every year. I wonder why we aren't harvesting the brush in Southern California for fuel, instead of watching it burn and spending millions to put it out. A little common sense use of money before the catastrophe would help avoid the expense of the catastrophe.

I would like to know where is the stimulus?
