That's another remarkable thing. :) It is very hard to say what exactly they tested and how, I am just curious how they expect the bacteria to start digesting the thing at the precise moment when the thing is declared as no longer needed. If would actually make sense to make compost with plastic-digesting bacteria (assuming the fast breakdown won't create a lot of toxins all at once, etc.) But with this, it's so random I don't know what they are thinking exactly. Remote control bacteria to read their minds on when they want the bacteria to start doing the work? It's a mystery to me how they envision it in practice
