Do you want to worry about plastic rotting like wood does?

[โ€“] xkforce 17 points 9 months ago

Yes. That'd be way better than having it kill animals and contaminate our food and water to the point where you basically cant avoid it. We literally want plastic to biodegrade. Just as long as it biodegrades after we are done using it. Which would be a wonderful problem to have compared to the current state of things.
