You're right, and half wrong at the same time. Yes, everyone will need to change habits, but a huge part of that change will require massive changes upstream - and the exact type of changes the oil and gas and GOP-mind-share cannot tolerate. Manufacturing and packaging of EVERYTHING will have to require careful and specific regulation of what plastics and hybrid constructions of plastic, metal and paper that can and cannot be put into products and their packaging. That is STEP ONE, BEFORE THE POPULATIONS' MATERIAL EFFORTS CAN ACTUALLY BEGIN. So, do you really think this is an issue of "getting everybody to conserve" or is it an issue of "getting the GOP-mind-share to recognize the necessity of serious and enforced regulations".
