Where do a lot of the plastics come from? Our tires, paint, mismanagement. Not straws. Not plastic bags.

I saw this last week, good video to help us focus on the reality over the sensation.
It is disturbing though that we are finding these plastic chemicals everywhere, even inside our bodies. I think greater than climate change concerns is how much we are really polluting our environment.

We go to Vegas often and they don't have the BS plastic bag/plate ban thing. I was getting a pizza to go and asked for a plastic bag because I wanted one with a handle. The girl looked at me weird until I explained the why. It's the little things that add up that makes HI a shithole. Add in that rice sticks to the paper take out containers, so I end up wasting a few bites. Then that sauces create a hole in the bottom. I got Pad Sew and walked back home 5 minutes and there was a hole the size of a nickel at the bottom of the paper plate.
Some places in Vegas tried paper straws, it wasn't law or ordinance, but many places tried. Only to revert back to plastic the next year.

Where do you buy your tires? If they are made of plastic, then you probably found your car in the toy aisle.

Researchers say tire emissions pose a threat to global health, and EVs could make the problem worse.
People have been warning for years about the increase in plastics used in lighter-weight cars.
But straws and shopping bags are evil.
