having done some research on this topic, the problem is not what goes into the landfills.. the problems are in the plastics that do not make it into the landfills, the production of the plastics, and the over-dependence on single-use plastics since the era of the Bic-Pen
- noizejoy 4y agoThe phrase “single use” is doing some heavy lifting there, and I have no idea why that particular product is made to be patient zero for this. A pen presumably gets hundreds or thousands of uses, depending on how you count. For example, one way product packaging is much more of a single use plastic. That being said, I’d hate to lose plastics for bulk food packaging, unless there’s an equally food safe successor.
