    Iirc they bred some worms that are able to, but not prefer to, consume and digest plastics. So the issue is that they essentially had to deprive the worms of other food sources before they chose to eat the available plastic.

    There may be some more promising research going into microbes or bacteria that i am not aware of though, so this answer isn’t necessarily comprehensive
