  1. Cellulose is a polysaccharide with formula (C6H10O5)n, where n is hundreds to thousands. Hemp, bamboo, and maybe algae are great sources of that fiber. Polyethylene Terephthalate is a plastic with formula (C10H8O4)n, where n is googles only 100? Anyway, if it was cheaper/more efficient than paper, and big business doesn't bury it, it might be better than paper. Biodiesel has shorter molecules, but is oily, and oil is efficiently made from palm trees and maybe algae.
