What happens if glass packaged goods are much more expensive to ship and prone to breakage thereby creating considerably CO2 exposure?
There are a zillion unforeseen externalizations in the mandates your listing - this is why centralization usually doesn't work very well.
Plastic is one of many materials that go in landfills, and we don't turn it into Co2 either so I'm not sure how we can go after that 'evil industry' and not others?
Probably a better solution would be to figure out how we can make use of that material afterwards - or - finding rational ways to dispose of it relatively cleanly.
- andrepd 6y agoYes because decentralisation is working wonders here... Leave each self-interested agent to profit off externalities which they don't have to pay. We will have good quarterly reports for our shareholders all the way to extinction.
