It sort of bewilders me that companies are releasing products based on these materials without having asked and answered basic questions - certainly issues identified with conventional plastics offered at least a partial roadmap of specific things to consider (nano/microparticle, environmental fate in various environments, impact of metabolites, behavior in digestive systems, etc.) And I see too many products preying on consumers, capitalizing on confusion of "biodegradable" vs "compostable" - in fact, I fear many making the consumer products from these materials don't fully understand the issues.
