Look at all this plastic, this is when you understand some things are not about recycling because repeating patterns can be dangerous! Recycling pop cans and actual plastic bottles is a whole other story! I can't believe how behind people are within 2023 because of all the marks and trickery rather than making people's life's better and the earth a cleaner place!

Solution ingredients:

1. Introduce law for plastic packaging to be priced at £/$/€ 1 per GRAMM

Yes, just the one ingredient.

Expected results:

- Consumers will keep plastics to reuse. We never thow away valuables
- Companies and corporations will introduce food/drinks dispensers to maximise profits as always
- The wealthy few to afford £/$/€10 per GRAMM, will pay for cleaning up

Example:
2 litres of coca-cola = £/$/€ 3
1 platic bottle (bottle+cap+labels) weighing 38 gramms = £/$/€ 38

3+38= £/$/€ 41

I can afford to buy a bottle of coca-cola for £/$/€ 41. And i will keep that bottle safe for years. You can bank on it

Devika an Environmentalist. Please color code plastic by country of production. The source couold be identified and photo of plastic collected could be recorded to manufacturer. This would ensure the Green Hat Police to work on stricter state pollution controls. The Ban could be universal there by protecting Biodiversity

If this government is so interested in saving the planet, why doesn’t it lead the way and force the manufacturers of cell phones to conform to a modular charging system!
It will prevent having to acquire a new charger and cord for the new cell phone & throwing the old ones away.
Same chargers and same cords for all cell phones that can be used interchangeably.
Different new cell phone, same old charger and cord!

In Denmark we pay a little deposit on every plastic bottle we buy. Every grocery store has a receptacle you feed a used bottle back into (also glass). The machine crushes the plastic, ready for easy transport to recycling. You get a receipt for your bottles, and are paid at the checkout. Circular system, and I’ve never seen a plastic bottle in the environment. If there are, they are quickly snatched up by someone who could use the money, who then returns it and gets paid. Win-win! This system works….what not use it everywhere?

How quickly does it wash off? I'm just wondering if this will increase the consumer useage of water. If it does then another problem is being created as the world is running low on fresh potable water. Some consumer reeducation may be needed. I know a few people that wash all fruits and vegetables, even the ones that require peeling, which is ridiculous.

The latest figure in 9 billion tons. I"m old enough to remember pre-plastic packaging, along with most everything else. Companies foist this stuff on us. For most everything, you either buy plastic products with or without plastic packaging or you don't shop. Food at farmer's markets can be bought without any plastic in the process - if you bring your cloth bag. that's also true with supermarket produce if you want.

China, Indonesia, phillipines, Vietnam and Sri Lanka are responsible for the vast majority of mismanaged plastic waste. India, Japan and Africa are not doing a great job but better that the ones mentioned. Canada, US, Europe, Australia, and South and Central American countries are doing great with respect to managing plastic but let’s pretend it’s plastic and not the country that are just dumping it in rivers. Stop blaming environmental problems on countries that are doing what they can. Now with Biden we are importing exorbitantly more expensive and dirty fossil fuels si he can virtue signal and screw American businesses and consumers not to mention our economy it lets print 4 trillion and then raise interest rates and tax rates to create stagflation and a looming depression. This crap makes me sick. If you want to identify problems be honest and call out the countries that are responsible. Do you think we are going to lead by example. They see us getting in a financial log jam and they say, let’s follow their lead instead of seize an opportunity to out compete them on the world stage. If you vote for these dishonest clowns then you are basically cutting off your arms and legs to prove you’re one of the good guys that will not survive in the real world. Don’t drag the rest of American people down to the sanctimonious sewer because you don’t look at facts but are moved by emotional puff pieces that make you feel guilty. Do you know what goes on in industrial China. Hint: it’s damaging the environment all by itself more effectively than all countries combined with plastic, coal and chemical emissions from industrial activities but the communists who destroyed the economy through the pandemic with a lot of help from us alarmism is our friend. They hate us and it’s high time we pointed out that most environmental problems are on their shoulders

All the plastics in the ocean all come from Asia. Almost 100% Yep. It’s funny when in order to virtue signal we blame a particular product that we handle responsibly here in the US. We have literally identified every single river in Asia some in Africa that leads to the ocean with plastic is dumped in why there are plastic cups bigger than many of the states in the US in the ocean and what it’s doing to the fish. However why do we Condemned the plastic that assholes in other countries can’t seem to deal with when we are able to deal with it just fine and it doesn’t end up in the ocean. Paper straws fucking suck. They are worthless. I’m sure there are some that are Ok, But again it’s disingenuous for the US that has the best environmental record of large industrial countries. If we spent $100 trillion and went for a green and destroyed our own economy it wouldn’t make a lick of difference as long as India China Russia Indonesia Africa are engaging in environmentally unsound practices which they will because they are developing countries that are focused on their economies. Biden in all his virtue signaling by destroying our energy independence has basically destroyed the countries economy and done nothing to make the world environment any better so let’s stop kidding ourselves And be smart but slowly phasing out fossil fuels Over a very long time until we can develop machines that are cheaper and superior to our competitors abroad. Why would we want to we can our economy in our military in order to virtue signaling while these other countries exploit the worlds resources and do nothing to counteract the damage they’re doing. By the way the lithium ion batteries for electric cars do untold damage to the environment so let’s not fool everyone into thinking that carbon emissions are the most horrible thing. Higher carbon in the atmosphere is a consequence of a warmer climate and not the cause of a warmer climate. But keep on thinking that we need to change our Way when everyone else is acting like total pricks even though we have a great record. The environment on a global level requires every country to do a good job and other than the US and a few countries in Europe every other country is doing a piss poor job. They are doing a worse Job than we did in the 40s so let’s not be fooled by all this virtue signaling nonsense that can destroy our country‘s economy
