3 myths about plastic pollution

Glass water bottles should be cheaper and more available, that could resolve more plastic problems

What practical suggestions do you have for individuals? How can we get big companies to do more?

Getting rid of oil isnt the soulution either.

Well when we were told that plastic was going to save the world. I guess they were wrong.

Consumerism got is into this needs and we can do something about that!!

Why not go back to the glass bottles with a deposit on them like before?

Well thats good I don't recycle at all.

Okay I dont like when people pick at problems, and don't offer any real solutions or alternatives Like...How the heck do you expect Coke or Pepsi to adopt a Reuse and Refil program??? The Consumer is the main issue there How am I supposed to take a 6 pack of bottles back to be refilled? Where would I take it? Should grocery stores be forced to keep gigantic vats of Coke and Pepsi on hand, in all it's different flavors and varieties on site? Do you have any idea how disgusting things would get?

Why don’t we turn recycled plastic into frames for glasses as it means it would lower the cost of frames for glasses

Here in Colorado, stores have not had paper bags for months now and some stores won't allow you to use your own bags from home...I don't understand how there is a paper bag shortage...wtf🤔

100% agreed. I dont care if every country goes to a zero net carbon footprint, it wont do anything to reverse the damage that has already been caused. The big brands and plastics industry companies need to come up with a plan to clean up the great Pacific garbage patch and other similar patches like it from our oceans. Then, ask Asia, specifically eastern Asia, to include China and india (theres roughly half the population of the world right there in those two countries) to drastically increase the amount of green energy and reduce (drastically) their waste into the ocean. Thatd be a good start. This guy is saying what I've been thinking for about 20 years. That great Pacific garbage patch is a monster. Billions upon billions of dollars will need to be spent to clean it up (mainly the reason it isn't done yet.)

Time to go back to the ways of our grandparents . Paper bags we take back to grocery store. Glass milk and soda bottles we exchange at store for refund.

Wrong,if anybody is at fault it's the consumer.

I'm sure this guy has a lot of plastic in his life. His TV, computer, coffee machine, auto etc. His reusable bottle makes him feel good.

Well you don't have these issues with glas and you can clean and reuse them

We need to go back to making things that will decompose or able to return to the earth! Even glass will eventually turn back to sand without killing everything

You rock man thank you

Use the plastic to make roads

Mr. Popular here, but the problem is too many people. TOO MANY PEOPLE! That is all...
