I get the reference, but at the same time, it absolutely should.

In my mind the idea is simply to move away from coal, oil and gas as our primary sources of energy and materials. They don't need to go away completely as long as we develop enough methods and means to offset their use and start undoing the damage we've already done.

So yes, we need to figure out how to improve shelf life.

We're probably going to need to add a petroleum tax and/or fossil fuel tax to make up for the hidden costs of continuing to use oil-based plastics and fossil fuels. Eliminating subsidies for oil and coal companies would also help.

Isn't that really the point, though? That it doesn't last? There's probably a need to improve that shelf life, but ultimately I don't see a way to get out of the cost for storage and recycling being higher, but that's because it actually uncovering some of the hidden costs of environmental damage of plastics.

"observed negative energy" is actually a huge deal. AFAIK, it was previously effectively imaginary, since it requires temperatures below 0K. As mentioned elsewhere, it's the required piece for FTL.

I know, right? The fact that we completely failed to enact any real policy to prevent this is an excellent demonstration of how well propaganda works.

We passed that a while ago. We are now in mitigation phase. I'm sure reversal is possible eventually, but we're a ways away from that one.
