Is there an alternative to rubber tires that does biodegrade?
No afaik but I'd bet there's at least someone working on that - it's needed asap, as car tires shed a quarter of all microplastics in the environment.
Wow, that's a lot higher than I expected.
Whoever comes up with a viable solution stands to make a lot of money.
