Or just killed by reality.
Just because it has been (hypothetically) invented doesn’t mean that it’s easy or even possible to manufacture at a large scale and/or at a reasonable price.
Sure thing bud. Just ask those people that have threatened industries like big oil with inventions in the past, if they’ve alive to tell it. Or even perhaps people like Nikola Tesla. Stay woke my lemming. Not all conspiracy theories are crazy
Sure. Like I just said Tesla. There are plenty more examples of companies trying to stop progress. Look what they’re doing right now with EV and solar in the US. That’s backed by big $ from lobbyist.
Or if you wanna talk about the topic at hand, petrol companies have recently projected that in the next 20 years, over 95% of their profits from oil will be made from plastic products, such as grocery store bags and single use products. Hell, grocery stores profit majorly from single use plastics.
In 2020 oil companies invested an additional $400 billion into upgrading plastic manufacturing. You can bet your ass that a large majority of that is going to lobby politicians, and manufacturers to follow the status quo, including blocking biodegradables, like corn based bags.
I’m convinced that “Big Trash Bag” has been lobbying for these kinds of laws lol
I’m sure they do a little for the climate, but does nothing to tackle the actual big polluters (i.e. big corporations)
Really gotta wonder how America hasn’t invented a corn-based, low-cost, durable polymer that breaks down in typical landfills.
I’m sure it has been. Just like a million other world changing inventions that have been captured/killed by the powers that be

Any examples?
