Not everyone will care about environmental affects so it's important to mention the health crisis.
Plastics, and associated chemicals like pthlates and PFOAs, that are also terrible for our health; reproductive health in particular. Scientists like Shanna Swan are blaming plastics for declining sperm counts and boys having less masculine features than in older generations. It goes way beyond BPA as the replacement chemicals for "BPA free" products are innocent until proven to be unsafe. Even tea bags are fully of plastic.
It's a minefield trying to avoid it. I'd really like plastics to be banned at least for single use packaging initially.
