<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 829115, member: 19065&quot;]Even if plastic lasts longer than paper, leaving paper will mark an era of much much legacy, innovation and will be leaving a more eco friendly (paper) solution behind... plastic will simply be a newer different era, plastics will outlive people and if a 2012 scenario is in our future or we simply fade away plastic will be around for a lot longer, most likely. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure mints/treasuries have done the research but regarding the argument that plastic notes will last longer seems like a problem regarding counterfeiting. The good thing now about paper technology and papers lifespan being so short is that there are more easily integrated anti-counterfeiting measures that can be implemented. With the idea that plastic notes can last longer, this may give counterfeiters more time to get their dark craft right and get by with fake notes, deceiving the public and governments far longer than they currently might be. Just a thought.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
