I don't think this for a second.
I think the only way it will stop if equivalent biodegradable materials can be made to replace single use plastic.
- simiones 3y agoOne important note here is that one of the reasons we use plastic so much is because it is not biodegradable. Any material that would replace plastic packaging, for example, has to at least be less biodegradable than the contents itself. For food that's probably relatively easy, but less so for many other items.
- friend_and_foe 3y agoThis is an apathetic mindset and is part of the problem. "I can't do anything! The whole world has to change or it can't be done!" It's not healthy to disempower yourself with respect to your own life. I do it, so it can be done. Everyone will be different everyone has tolerances, but it can be done. People make the problem larger than life so that they have am excuse not to do anything. The only thing you can change is your own behavior.
