In 50 years people will back on us the same we look at all those people in the late 1800's and early 1900's using asbestos in tons of stuff.

Assuming we ever find a way to get the plastic out of everything

It makes me long for the days where everything was either metal, glass, or wood, before my time though.

There is a show called silo, and they don't use plastic, it'll took me a couple of episodes before I figured out what was wrong

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

What's the premise of the show?

I try to buy non-plastic stuff when I can, but it's everywhere.

No joke, I wear basketball shorts for running, apparently they shed shit tons of micro plastics during washing. I'm going to look for cotton running shorts in an attempt to try to ween myself off of some plastic stuff. Because as you noted, it's god damn every where, this very moment I'm directly touching no less then 5 plastic objects as I type this.

Wait, really? Ugh... I have quite a few of those.

Plastic objects? Yeah same here.
