Not yet practicable. Someday it will be a necessity for one reason or
another, might as well prepare now to the extent possible.
Our problem is that we use fossil fuel all of our packaging and it is
critical to manufacturing.
It doesn't matter, sooner or later, there will be no fossil fuel available at any price.
You'll have to switch to some sort of bio-based packaging..
We only need to worry about another 16 years, when there is the
possibility of a large deposit of elements being made on Earth.
P.S.. The difference between living cells and thermally cracked ones(fossil fuels) is not
that much of difference. (Need extra energy inputs to grow, collect bio-matter, and then
crack them via pyrolysis. ).
My wife is a geologist and chemist.
Eventually EROEI on fossil fuels will drop so low, It won't even be worth looking for
them. But, before that happens the extra CO2 we've put into the atmosphere will drive
Earth's Biosphere into the major 6th extinction level event.
Or that big rock heading towrds Earth in 16 years will make it a moot
point.
