    @Mojojojo1993 I know that at least Goodyear already presented a tire made of 70% sustainable materials. Combine that with their ideas for airless tires and we might be on a good way. I guess other tire manufacturers are researching in this fields already as well.

      Producing tires with sustainable materials is a bit of a different problem from producing tires that release less toxic dust. They will need to be pressured into spending money on the later.

        @Jason2357 My understanding is that if the base materials of the tire are taken from rice and soy, they should be compostable when abrasion sets them apart from the tire and releases them into nature. But I might be mistaken here.
