Plastics are bad news for your own health, the environment, and ecology generally. I've been cutting out my personal exposure to estrogenic items (a good list here, check the guy's book if you're interested in the gritty details: https://www.ajconsultingcompany.com/estrogenics.html https://www.ajconsultingcompany.com/estrogenics.html), and it has, as a result, lead to less plastic use overall. Depending on where you live, it can be pretty hard to find non-plastic alternatives for some products; for example: unless you have a butcher that will give you meat served in butcher paper, your meat is probably stored in plastic. However, many things are easy to eliminate, such as low quality cooking oils stored in plastic. It's easy to find olive, avocado, coconut, mct, and other cooking oils in glass containers and to use those (and butter) instead of canola, soy, or vegetable oils. Do what's reasonable personally for your and your family's health, and advocate for bans and restrictions on environmental plastics in your countries, as that's really the only long-term solution.
