      Students to the rescue. I don’t know why those paper straws were so badly designed either.

      Yes. I wonder if that’s intentional. This other article mentions enzymes and has some photos taken over three time periods. https://the-european.eu/story-60626/meet-the-earth-prize-winning-teenager-tackling-the-worlds-microplastic-crisis.html
