The resulting mutant PETase now takes just a few days to break down PET, compared to the 450 years it takes for the stuff to degrade naturally.
The original Ideonella sakaiensis bacterium is far from the first living species to possess plastic-eating proclivities.
Waxworm caterpillars have been found to break down plastic in a matter of hours, and mealworms possess gut microbes that eat through polystyrene.
"it is likely that microbes are evolving faster and better strategies to break down man-made plastics. It seems that nature is evolving solutions."
Scientists stumbled upon a plastic-eating bacterium—then accidentally made it stronger

Koalas were hunted by Indigenous Australians and depicted in myths and cave art for millennia.
The first recorded encounter between a European and a koala was in 1798, and an image of the animal was published in 1810 by naturalist George Perry.
Botanist Robert Brown wrote the first detailed scientific description of the koala in 1814, although his work remained unpublished for 180 years.
The biggest threat to their existence is habitat destruction caused by agriculture, urbanisation, bushfire and drought.
Koalas typically inhabit open eucalypt woodlands, and the leaves of these trees make up most of their diet. Because this eucalypt diet has limited nutritional and caloric content, koalas are largely sedentary and sleep up to 20 hours a day.
