Graphene, attributable to its exceptional electrical, chemical, physical, mechanical, thermal, structural, and optical characteristics, has evolved into a remarkable and revolutionary substance with which scientists are tinkering and molding its various forms. Currently, as greener resources are more approachable, for environmental and human health reasons, researchers are now employing diverse forms of natural resources, such as plant resources (flowers, wood, leaves, etc.), edibles (fruits, vegetables, cookies, chocolate, coffee, tea, etc.), biowaste, or any other kind of natural resources, by using different methods for their synthesis, such as the hydrothermal method, chemical vapor deposition, thermal exfoliation, freeze-drying, and so on, for framing different forms of graphene or its hybrids or even for the synthesis of graphene itself. In this review, we highlight several natural resources along with the biowaste materials to fabricate widely approachable graphenes which can also be transformed into different forms to make them more environmentally protected. We included here the safer synthetic processes, as well as many sectors where graphene and its various forms have intriguing potential. Future graphene research is anticipating new paths as the demand for the protection of the environment and sustainable alternatives is increasing.
