And then put it where?
Sprinkle it on top of ice-creams
Seems more like a froyo topping than ice cream idk
Is the froyo cursed?
The toppings contain Potassium Benzoate.
Can I go now?
It comes with a free doll... which is also cursed.
It was better than Eclair, not as good as Gingerbread.
While I think this is a perfectly valid follow-up question, even if the "solution" is to bury it (with safeguards such as not able to get into groundwater), that's better than it being in the drinking water. Short term at least.
Considering how early this research is, it's also possible they wanted to know their filter works before solving disposal. And, while not explicit, it sounds like this is meant to replace existing filters that themselves use plastic, so this could be a net gain even if disposed in the exact same manner as the original filters however that may be.
There are some microbes and I believe meal worms who can eat certain plastics. There will be solutions
It's not hopeless is all im saying. We still gotta do better to reduce use of plastics, but there is still hope to fix some of the damage we have already done
I concur; we should always strive for progress, not perfection.
If we can take it away from our water and trap it in plant material, I think it would be better off.
Some one else's water.
Macroplastics?
Let plastic-eating microbes dissolve it.
People in this thread are looking for complicated answers. But the best thing to do with sawdust, plant matter and a tiny bit of micro plastics seems to me also to just burn it.
