Get your surfboard and head for the sea. Just you, the sea and the board, nothing else. It looks like an environmentally-friendly sport,
and that would be the case if there wasn’t any foam, that stuff they use to make surf boards. Foam is toxic, but don’t worry! The TXFOAM project has presented us with an alternative. The young researchers Borja Ponte and Julen Rementeria have developed a new material that is less toxic and recyclable. The environment will be grateful.
