Plastic pollution is a real environmental 'emergency'

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/...infertile-2045

Plastic pollution causing smol penors and infertility.

So much time and effort is devoted to 'muh climate change' because its a vague and nebulous idea with no tangible evidence, no solutions and can be used to control people and transfer wealth to the turd world.

Environmentalism is racism since only Europeans care about the environment and a vast majority of actual pollution comes from south and east Asia. Most 'environmentalists' are just anti-racist watermelons, green on the outside but red on the inside. Hence they can never be true environmentalists, they love muh climate emergency but pay little heed to actual issues like plastic pollution.

There was a documentary series on netflix that claimed the huge industries are the only reason for the massive plastic pollution and all these cleanups or reducing plastic consumption on a personal level is like taking a grain of sand from the beach aka. completely useless. Unless the industries switch to more eco-friendly approach in their packaging, this will continue.

Governments could ban this stuff overnight, they've shown how much they can flex their power if they actually want to. But they and their handlers don't care about the environment or your health so they won't.

Yup. Meanwhile the biggest companies in the world, nestle, PepsiCo, Coca Cola, Mars, proctor and gamble, and so many others continue to mass manufacture products wrapped in plastic

Nobody has the balls to sack up and claim that human beings are the problem, not plastic. There's too many of us. I would love to be frozen in time in order to survive our upcoming mass extinction event and witness what comes after the human species. Giant insects? I, for one, would welcome our giant insectoid overlords. Plastic tentacles and all.

public smoking should be banned. $500 fine strongly enforced!

Plastic straw ban? Cigarette butts are the single greatest source of ocean trash

Cigarette butts have long been the single most collected item on the world’s beaches, with a total of more than 60 million collected over 32 years.

I wish more companies would use hemp-based plastics instead of petroleum based. The great Pacific garbage island is a disgusting example of humanity.

If single use plastic bottles and bags were banned overnight, it wouldn't affect my life in the slightest. Why are so many so reliant on them? Use reusable bags at the grocery store. They're stronger and fit more loot. I use a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated during the day. I never buy soft drinks or any of that garbage, pretty much just drink water. Who the fuk uses plastic straws? Plebs at mcdonalds?

Basically, get rid of low IQ plebs, get rid of the single use plastic. Unless you're a mouthbreathing simpleton, you don't constantly rely on those products.

I agree. The same with the paper/cardboard straws, people complain about them despite it being a step in the proper direction. Asia and India are the work offenders, there are countries that have literal garbage rivers that flow straight into the ocean. They even found plastic at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Pathetic...

If there's one thing that human beings are apt at, it's consumption. It's a national pass-time and an addiction. There's a lot of value in living a simpler life out in nature like we're supposed to.

We've become a weak species over-reliant on convenience. Cognitive dissonance is also a hell of a thing. The masses of humans tend to only consider the here and now and not the longterm consequences of what we do.

It's probably never going to change, but I personally like to live a more sustainable life. Those are lessons I hope to pass down to my children as well.

Wonder what the major sources of this are. Read #3 printed on the bottom plastic is bad but the others are ok. PVC is bad. Fast food causes high levels for some reason.

Thanks for the suggestion. On spread as well. Always on spread with my raping you

EDIT: just a bit of Googling and it seems like this thinker might be getting his last dying wish with the current state of what is the covid-19 pandemic.

I’ve felt for awhile companies need to responsible for the impact of their products at the end of its life cycle.

You making profit off somthing that causes this? A % of that profit now needs to go toward fixing it. Time to switch to somthing like hemp plastics or come up with better ideas. Also reign in fake green companies that rely on stuff like toxic batteries or those giant fukking windmills.

Let capitalism take responsibility and solve the problems, that’s where the power and intelligence is anyways.

To do so would mean circumventing human greed. I really doubt that's going to happen any time soon.

Correct. Consumer recycling and banning straws/ plastic bags is nothing more than virtue signalling feel good crap.

Your average global warmist probably isn't too bothered by rising numbers of gays and trannies due to hormonal imbalances.
