Looks like we better go back to Silk Worm Gut.

Well, looked at from a geological perspective, or compared to other
ecologically questionable products like plutonium, petroleum and
mercury, or practices such as strip mining or clear cutting, dumping
uncounted centimeter long pieces of long chain polymers in the world's
streams, lakes, and oceans looks a wee bit less horrific.

On the other hand, I've got a mulberry tree!
