Aerial view of the orange peel-treated area (right) and untreated pasture (left), surveyed by Princeton researchers. In the late 1990s, an unusual conservation experiment began in Costa Rica when ecologists proposed using orange peels and pulp to help restore a badly degraded piece of land inside a national park.For this, orange juice company Del Oro … Read more
