We have been played.
One of the benefits of recycling being a major part of modern day culture is that the future generations of decision makers will have grown up with it. Hopefully they’ll continue to consider the environment and peoples overall health when making large scale policies.
At this rate future generations will be entirely made of plastic.
They’ll be effectively immortal.
Not just once. Maybe even twice!

New recycling techniques are being developed, even if we landfilled our trash separately it would help future efforts to clean it all up.
I feel like it does good, but then Penn & Teller day otherwise.
It’s gonna depend on where you are, ultimately. Here it all ends up in a dump anyway.
Not buy and if you already did re-use it.

We will not get to 0 % plastic products or packaging. That shouldn‘t stop us from reducing it significantly, even if we have to look back to the mid 20th century to see how that works.
obviously since personal responsibility isn’t a thing at all you’re free to pour arsenic water in the streets
yeah no, keep recycling, just also tell your government to implement manufacturer responsibility for the recycling of their products.

Class action lawsuits.
Like the one hitting ZipLoc.
There’s no way they didn’t lab test those bags and did not see the plastic breaking down.
HAAARRRRKKKKK!!!
