Everything? I think instead, we'll just stop making most things out of plastics. We have longer-lasting, more durable materials than plastics already, for when you want something that will actually survive decades or generations. They're metals and woods and stones.
Some things, like wire coatings, will still likely need to be plastic and will become disposable. But most uses of plastic for long-lasting goods will just stop using plastics. Goods will get much heavier, but more durable.
