Hi Paul,
I see what you mean about 3D printing. But won't we also want the materials scientists to come up with a non-fossil fuel plastic that can be printed to a high degree of accuracy, and is biodegradable?
I think we may be some way way from that.
My feeling, as a 3D printer owner, and shameless tree enthusiast, is that farmed wood may be still the best option.
Also in all these discussions, I can hear you all silently wishing so very much that wooden clarinets might be still okay, because we all love them so much. I do really think that they might be the best option for climate as well as everything else.
I haven't seen the numbers on CO2 generation for the various options. I wonder where we could find those numbers?
I mean CO2 generated on plastic v 3D print v farmed Grenadilla wood?
