Cue the obligatory book recommendation, which I myself got from HN:
“Mutant 59: The Plastic Eater” by Kit Pedler and Gerry Davis, published in the 1970s. Explores the concept of a plastic-eating bacteria accidentally released in London, leading to a crisis as the bacteria starts consuming all plastic materials in the city.
