    I thought the nuance of what I was saying would be recognized by communities like this.

    Yes, technically it still exists in the environment. Nothing is ever made to not exist. What I meant was that it would no longer be able to be ingested by any creatures. This is after all where our petroleum deposits came from, millenia of plankton and other creatures dying and being covered up by other matter.

      What I meant was that it would no longer be able to be ingested by any creatures.
