    We need much more restriction on what chemicals and materials can be produced in the first place. It’s no good waiting for generations until someone finds a causality in the data, there is public outrage, a campaign, a national law passed and then an international agreement. And there’s no way to clean this stuff up once it’s out there.

    No, what we need is to abolish capitalism, because as long as these practices make money (and they do, lots), those who benefit don’t give a single fuck about the environment nor any of us or the plastics in our brains (or theirs for that matter, like with all the other rules and laws they’ve set up for society, they genuinely think they’re above being impacted because they can afford to be, in this case by being able to buy better food and get better healthcare), and they will NEVER act to improve things unless it makes them more money.

      Congradulations, you have replaced the problem statement with one 100 times larger, and offered no actual solutions to achiving the larger problem statement (the abolition of capitalism) or the smaller (Flouro-Carbons)
