    I bet it’d suddenly become very viable if nations started banning non-recyclable plastic packaging.

      It wouldn’t. It’s like banning decomposition… Good fucking luck, you can play with it a little, but ultimately it’s just not possible

        It’s entirely possible, governments just don’t want to put in the work to prosecute plastic manufacturers.

          What I mean to say is the recycling isn’t possible. It just never worked, from the beginning the best they could do is add a little old plastic to the new plastic… You never end up with the same amount of plastic though, you always end up with way more plastic

          Limiting plastic on the other hand? That’s doable, we can’t start soon enough
