Cool, especially the fact that it's made from cellulose that comes from precision fermentation. However, new bioplastics are being developed nonstop yet haven't become widespread. The article mentions it can biodegrade in one to two months without requiring industrial composting, but if it degrades so easily will it actually be useful?
