Okay, but... how is this relevant in this context?
I'm not suggesting we make more PLA intentionally as a long-term carbon sink, I'm just suggesting that of the options actually available, this one has the upside of providing medium-term carbon storage as an externalised benefit, which, of the options available, makes it the best and possibly even a net positive.
(I am not in any way suggesting this by itself is some kind of carbon solution. But I am saying maybe it can actively help a bit - be a net positive - thus making it the best and really only good answer for disposal of current waste PLA. Obviously, reuse is better, which is why I intend to produce PLA plastic sheet pieces, possibly for other makers as well as for myself. But eventually, you're going to be dealing with waste.)
