Original research an notability[edit]

I have concerns that this article is failing Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Notability policies. It seems an original synthesis of sources, not a single one of which discuses the topic of "environmental impacts of sterile food packaging". In other words, it is a synthesis of two groups of sources, one that discusses food packaging, and another one that discusses environmental impacts of chemicals. But I don't see a source that discusses both, lending this topic notability. Thoughts? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:05, 24 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is no longer an issue with this article. It had been broadened and put into context, and the subject is a notable one. When billions of packages are dumped or burnt causing possibly severe problems, I think that is worth noting! In any case with something like this, which is a problem regarding a recent innovation, of course it is going to be "original research". Somebody has to come up with it. All articles on Wikipedia are an "original synthesis of sources". This is something that ought to be encouraged if Wikipedia is not going to be fossilised and irrelevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.178.20.46 (talk) 19:20, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
