German scientists finally made a biodegradable plastic.

I didn't read most of the article because I'm a jackass.So, based off of wood pulp. Does that mean that this plastic is made from... trees? Wouldn't that would basically be switching from one non-renewable resource to another (Kinda. Trees grow back but c'mon)?
And even if not, it's still better than oil.

Trees grow back very quickly compared to oil. The fact that a tree can grow to useable size in a decade or so is the basis of the entire modern logging industry.

We need DDM in here to rule on if this is useless or not.
Carbon nanotubes could be used to make materials that are super strong and biodegrade harmlessly. This is area of research is useless, they should be developing memristors.

Emerging technology analysis: "Is this useful. If useful, is it practical. If practical, is it affordable. If affordable, is there a learning curve. If a steep learning curve, are there qualified individuals that can be hired to implement and train on this technology." And so forth.
IBM also has a 20 point evaluation check-list. You can do your own analysis, quite easily, and then tell us if it is useful or not.

Awwwww, are you butthurt because I pointed out the obvious? 🙁
Maybe you could check on that superstrong material for your Dyson Spheres? awesome
BTW, memristors are useful (fully workable circuits with measurable response times, etc.) and will be hitting the market in a couple of years. HP greenlit the project for "production-level" memristors. Can't say the same of your precious phospholipid photovoltaic cells. 😆
Wood is a liquid timber of the consolidation of the deep penetration that regenerates rotten, dried or spongy wood by restoring structural strength and integrity of the wood fibers. Although it has proved extremely useful in the modern world, plastic still has a number of negative points.With LiquidWood sale, a damaged piece of wood that could crumble under finger pressure can be impregnated and delivered on rigid, durable water and stronger than the original.

Yeah, besides, certain trees grow quite fast, assuming they don't need to be fully grown adult trees to extract the substance needed.
