Sure, they're degradable... But what about the energy used to make them, what about the land that's used to grow the avocados, aren't they hard to grow, don't they need a lot of fertiliser and such?
Degradable doesn't always mean sustainable. But it's good that people are thinking of new solutions, I don't want to discourage them.
