This was really cool to read about. Hopefully this becomes widespread once improved.

This. Bioremediation has promising potential but as someone who has done bioremediation research in various applications..... your comment reflects how I wish more people would think. Far too many people interpret advancements like this as a free pass to continue practices terrible for the environment.

IMO, bioremediation is basically being hijacked by corporate polluters (oil companies) trying to greenwash their products.
