      So you acknowledge you can't get rid of all plastics, so how about instead of trying to ineffectually minimise it's usage and annoying people by telling them what they can/can't enjoy. Why don't you and the rest of the dumb hippies redirect your efforts to improving the disposal process that is the actual problem that allows it to cause harm in the first place? Banning single use plastics is entirely unneeded if you can instead address the issues allowing rubbish going from peoples bins into the ocean/environment. Technically speaking plastic is basically a carbon sink since the carbon in plastics doesn't go into the air and it's not actually the enemy you claim it to be.

        I didn't say you can't get rid of all plastics, I said getting rid of it all at once, right now, is fantasy. I'm sure some people smarter than me will come up with some solutions to replace some of those more harmful uses without bringing our society backwards. But at the moment, a slow transition is all we can do. Starting with the least essential of plastics.

        "Technically speaking", you've pulled that out of your ass about plastics not going into the air. A quick search pulls plenty of evidence that this does occur when plastic deteriorates. And single use plastics are far more likely to deteriorate quickly.
        Did you really find that information from a reliable source that you're able to dismiss the huge amounts of science which points to the contrary definitively? Or you've just typed out whatever comes to mind, with no basis in reality? Makes it hard to have an adult conversation with you.

        You're not approaching this conversation with any form of intellect, you're stating things as fact that are not fact, simply because you're enraged by small, insignificant behaviours by a small subset of people. Nothing you've said in this thread seems to be grounded in science or fact, you seem really unknowledgeable about this thing that you're taking such a strong stance towards. It really reduces your credibility.
        But you have admitted above that your behaviour here is based on how offended you are by other people, rather than by rationality, so I suppose that isn't surprising.

        I'm sure there are plenty of more hardened environmentalists who are advocating for increased funding into researching the improval of things like the disposal process. Not sure why you think that doesn't happen? And plenty of environmentalist research being done in that field, but unfortunately not many breakthroughs. Hence why the only solution within our power here and now is working towards reducing the number of plastics we use needlessly. Maybe in some theoretical future with a magic breakthrough that won't be necessary. But I live in reality, not some theoretical future that doesn't exist yet.

        I wouldn't consider myself a 'hippie', so I'm not going to spend my valuable time and energy advocating for increased funding in that area, or dedicating my life to that scientific field. I'm going to adjust small things in my life that takes zero time or effort.

        I'm sure you're heavily involved in research and advocacy for improved disposal, right?
        Or do you just get emotional when people point out that plastic is bad for the environment, decide you're incapable of changing your habits, and do nothing other than throw tantrums on bargain sites?

        Why do you have such a deep emotional fragility towards people saying that the billions of straws that get discarded each day are bad for the environment? It's fact, not sure how you can visualise that many straws being both produced and disposed each day and truly think that it seriously doesn't have any impact at all, or even has a positive one? Plenty of other environmental calamities that are worse for sure, but not a reason to advocate for increased production and disposal of unnecessary use elsewhere.

        I've never understood why people like you spend so much valuable energy in your life advocating for this. It's really odd behaviour to me, and I don't see how you could possibly suggest that it's actually a positive thing, and be sincere?

          @snoopydoop: Plastics are incredibly useful, often plastics are beneficial for the environment compared to the alternative. Cars/transport made with plastics combined with other materials can weigh far less than those without the plastics thus saving immense amounts of energy that would otherwise be needed for transportation. Plastics are not the enemy and it would make sense to create a society that is smarter when it comes to the separation and disposal of plastics rather than a fantasy world where there are no plastics at all which isn't going to happen.

          Only reason there's plastic in the air comes mostly down to car tyres and for the other 10-15% due to poor disposal aka microplastic in the ocean becoming cloud seeds. Plastics aren't disintegrating directly into the air, learn to read your own sources.

          You don't even know how to make logical conclusions from the sources you list and you have the audacity to talk crap, take your shoes off they are clearly wayyyyy too big.

          "I'm sure you're heavily involved in research and advocacy for improved disposal, right?"

          Course not, but then i never claimed to actually give a (profanity). I just think it's laughable that those who claim they do are so embarrassingly bad at doing anything to help.

          So you believe all this shit you spout but are too lazy to do anything to effect real change, you think that's admirable?

          I'm annoyed by stupidity, I've stated my motivation early on, pay attention.

          Cause they're dumb.

          Advocating for what? less stupid people or that the stupid people at the least redirect their effort in a effective way?

            @dowhatuwant2: If you truly believe that billions of straws every day isn't having a single affect on the environment, I don't know what to tell you. I think it's pretty common sense that it is, even in a small way.

            I also think your view that people either need to dedicate their lives to environmental causes, or they don't have a right to make small simple changes to their life that require little to no effort, is a completely ridiculous one. Change has literally never happened like that.

            You're flip flopping between straws are good for the environment, and the fact that you don't care about the environment and are acting out of your emotional reaction towards people online. You provide contradicting "facts" that are not backed up by anything. Our goals are extraordinarily different. Since your goal is to intentionally harm the environment for a number of irrational reasons, I don't think there's any point talking?

            Honestly feel like you're needlessly hostile on this issue, and I say this with the best of intentions, but there's no shame in therapy. It feels like this affects you negatively a lot more than it should?
