Question: is plastic ever going to be safe and biodegradable

Great question! There are a few plastics that already are both safe and biodegradable. But plastics are unique in how tailorable they are so there are lots out there that aren’t. There are lots of science projects going on to try to solve this for certain plastics. For example, in my project we are trying to change plastics used for adhesives and coatings https://www.champion-project.eu/
