So what exactly will you do with your printed plastic when you get bored of your printed stuff?

[marcosscriven]

Certainly we should be mindful of single-use plastic. For prototyping, PLA is biodegradable in the right conditions, and doesn’t come from petroleum.

There’re all sorts of things 3D printing is good for.

Do you think 3D printing shouldn’t be allowed?

I'm not saying it shouldn't be allowed. But people really should be thinking about plastic usage (and they don't.. they just need that stuff handy to print whatever.. ) and all the waste they generate when they don't need the said printed part anymore (for better or worse their descendant/successor will not need it anymore and will throw it away...)
