No, after the Grey Goo of '32 microplastics were all consumed by nanomachines. Plastics too. Goo Flu claims millions of lives, though some after recovery report higher IQs post flu.
Many scientists in the 2150s attribute the rise in intelligence after the Goo Flu due to the Flynn Effect and Survivorship Bias – essentially, those who made it into the shelters, tunnels, caves and vaults underground survived, and by definition, they heeded the warnings about the Grey Goo and weren’t stripped apart by the swarms.
It’s tenuous exactly why most of humanity actively embraced armageddon, especially with so much ample evidence that the Goo wasn’t religious in nature and a mechanistic effect of the specious rapid construction program (RCP) of the 2130s.
When did you get your ticket and why did you choose the 2020s to return to, friend?

Not a time traveler, just something I read in a fortune cookie.
I opened a fortune cookie and all it told me was the dictionary definition of capitalism
Edit: I was wrong, it wasn’t just the definition but it definitely wasn’t a fortune either!
