There is no “beyond the environment.” Landfills count too.

  Releasing plastics into the larger environment, especially microplastics, and confining them to landfills, are most definitely not the same thing.

    Stuff often leaks out of landfills and into the environment. As an above comment said, landfills can be done correctly so this doesn't happen, but often aren't.

      And the vast majority of the stuff does not leak out. You're making an Argument from Homeopathy here.
