Such as? Conspicuously left unsaid. Hmmmmm. Well maybe it's an editorial choice for brevity, let's take a look at their website: <a href="https://composites.umaine.edu/biohome3d/" rel="nofollow">https://composites.umaine.edu/biohome3d/</a><p>Hmmmmmm <i>"bio-resins"</i>. Well, if it's not compostable, which it isn't, because otherwise they would just say so because that's a good thing, then it's just <i>plastic with extra steps</i>.<p>So no thanks. If you want an eco house you can make a perfectly fine house out of mud and straw that you can bulldoze later with no guilt whatsoever, not whatever this horrible shit is; where you're left with some awful composite material that nobody knows what to do with. I swear, if I had a dollar for everyone one of these awful ideas where the answer is secretly some undegradable plastic or polymer, I'd be a millionaire.<p>I think these environmental design journals have an obligation to follow a higher standard than this to be honest.
