They say 3.4% of greenhouse gas emissions from plastics which is nothing. We do need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by like 80% but not to 0.
Personally I’d rather save that last 20% for important things like being able to escape earth’s gravity well, rather than dumb shit like single-use plastics. Maybe that’s just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also not sure why more waste to energy is not used. Sure green house gases, but if it displaces other emissions maybe not so bad.
Also is the plot all time or current. I only care about currentbor last 10 or 20 years and future tends.

Greenhouse gases are not the only environmental concern. I do agree about a more specific time scale.
Yes. There are other concerns. Micro plastics for example maybe. My only point really… Maybe some off these things are less important then others.
