London, UK (OPENPRESS) September 25, 2011 -- A recently published report by Technavio, specialists in emerging technologies market research, reveals that the Global Bioplastics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32 percent over the period 2010-2014. The report, which covers the Americas as well as the EMEA and APAC regions, indicates that the market is being driven by the favorable policies adopted by various governments.
According to Technavio's industry analyst, "The excess use of plastics has led to an increase in CO2 emission and toxic landfills. As a result, governments of various countries have been encouraging production of bioplastics.

Also, the Kyoto Protocol has been established where member countries have agreed to reduce CO2 emission by adopting various measures, including bioplastics."
