Jawn do ya do!
Now that hacker summer camp is over, now's the time to get that talk you're inspired to do submitted to our CFP, which closes in a few weeks! https://cfp.jawncon.org
There was a time in the history of this planet when plants had evolved lignin for their woody tissues, but microbes hadn't yet evolved to digest lignin. The result was that woody plant tissues accumulated in the environment, eventually becoming coal beds. Eventually microbes evolved to digest lignin though and that era was over.
Today, we have another organic material accumulating in the environment because microbes don't digest it -- plastics.
An enterprising environmental activist with a genetic engineering background should develop strains of bacteria and fungus that love to digest all of our commonly used polymers and release them into the environment without asking permission.
It would mean that all our plastic stuff would start rotting, but at least we wouldn't have microplastics in our brains and testicles.
(I know that there are some isolated cases of some microbes that show the ability to digest plastics, but they aren't prevalent and not solving the plastic problem, so don't feel that you need to tell me that)
