> I see 1 as an existential threat that can crumble nations Agree, yet consider this. During early COVID-19 crisis Earth civilization spent some many billions - I think above some trillions actually - USD equivalent fighting this rather little-known problem. Spending this kind of money on climate crisis can substantially improve things. > I see 2 as something troubling Plastic pollution is somewhat similar to early COVID-19 - we don't know long-term effects from this type of poisoning of our environment, so I'd err on the side of caution. It's not a good idea to keep microplastics in human organs - we just don't know how it could turn out to be, and we have reasons to suspect that our bodies, not evolved alongside the plastics, don't appreciate that.
