The long term answer has to be, produce almost no plastic at all, except those cases where it's a genuine necessity such as medical uses.

- adrianN 7y agoI don't think so. The raw materials can be literally synthesized from thin air with enough energy input and you can burn plastics to get rid of them again. What we definitely need to stop completely is letting plastics escape into the environment. Clothes made from plastic fibers for example need to go away.
- JulianMorrison 7y agoIf you have to keep the stuff under harsh disposal control, that would rather obviate the non essential uses.
