That said, I personally believe that revolutionary tech like this should be released for anyone and everyone to use freely for the greater good (sorta like how Volvo gave up the patent for the three-point seatbelt) but I doubt that'll happen in today's world.
It's great that this packaging solves the problem of plastic staying around forever or turning into microplastics when floating around in the ocean and exposed to the UV light from the sun.
But the first thing I'm wondering is whether that new packaging really solves that problem too or just speeds the process up a lot, or maybe just has different bad effects. Towards the end it mentions "carefully wrapped in paper", so hopefully it's not actually a more hazardous variant of plastic that happens to degrade faster.
