Less plastic being manufactured? Sounds good to me. :)
Likely far more energy and pollution needed to manufacture this though so overall a loss for the earth.
Energy needs can be met and shouldn't be an argument for using plastic.
The pollution could be more dependending on how you look at that statement, but making something without plastic results in less plastic pollution and you can't claim that to be an overall loss for the earth.
