    We can’t afford to think like this. Climate is such an unthinkably massive issue that we need all of it, and then some more, and then some more.

    There is no project big enough that we don’t need 50,000 more projects of equivalent scope to get things where they need to be.

      Think like what? Think this is just one small pice. Small enough that it almost doesn’t matter, and shouldn’t take any energy or news inches from the larger problem of plastic packaging? Because honestly, it sounds like we’re on the same page there.

      Also plastics aren’t much of a climate issue. They’re part of a more broad environmental issue.

        It might be unclear if you’re advocating a comprehensive plastic policy, or whataboutism directed at just one other use of plastic.
