Maybe there’s a way we can get a group together to deploy the right mushroom to clean the biosphere ..I can’t fund something like this but maybe there’s a way to get a bunch of people together to help fund this and deploy it before it’s too late.
I don’t have the time right now to look into this but here’s a link for more info if anyone’s interested:
EDIT: I just found this article with a reference list of mushrooms and what they degrade: https://www.realmushrooms.com/mycoremediation-mushrooms-pollution/#11qmk
We're gonna need something that can degrade vinyl chloride, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, ethylhexyl acrylate, and isobutylene which are heavily UV resistant so they are going to take awhile to degrade naturally. I haven't taken chemistry in a few years, but just by looking at the reference sheet, I'm thinking the oyster mushroom and king tube mushrooms might be the best contenders.
