Scientist and engineer Mark Miodownik describes a new class of materials — animate matter — with the potential to sense damage, self-heal and even biodegrade when the job is done. Humanity’s next great leap isn’t making…

Idealistic Attitude there, because what he’s saying is not going to be as easy as he wants to believe it will. First of all, most of the human race is nowhere near as educated as they would need to be to even implement such a plan. We would need to at least increase the highly educated numbers to perhaps as much as a fifth of the population maybe? That won’t happen in just a couple of decades! Also, you’ll never get every nation on Earth to agree to that new form of economy. As we are a species that does like making things, if we go with self repairing materials completely, many of us will be unable to do things we now do, because self repairing materials will make that unecessary.
Yes this world is not in the best of shape, because of us, but getting all humans to agree to a new system like that might never happen, because we all like having our own ideas and ways of doing things! Almost 7 to 9 billion humans, with minds of their own, will never fully agree on even one thing!
This man is just airing his Pipe Dream!

most people who use things like cement don’t know or care about the chemistry. they just follow the instructions on the bag. if we can start commercially selling self-repairing cement, we don’t need the masses to understand the chemistry.

@NirvanaFan5000 Keyword in your comment is “If.” It’s a word with just 2 letters, but is the biggest word in the English language, as it is used more than just about any other word! And it leaves one thinking “Whatever ‘If’ is referring to here will likely never happen.” That is how “if” works!
