I was unaware of this...wow...I would like to think we should focus a bit more of our eco interests in this problem. This is a big mess now what will it be like in 20 years.
Toxic waste from plastics may just be what ends man. It may take a lot of other life with it. I am betting it does. But in say 250 million years when man is gone it won't have made much Earth impact.
Most plastic resins are waste bi-products of oil. The so-called crisis of oil is moot to me when plastics are created daily and with no whine. It's just a silly argument to whine about any fuel related problem as EPA carbon gasses, and anything so long as plastics and every single thing made of them isn't also added to the equation. This means all products made of plastics.
There are other natural plant resins to make plastic of which are safer, but if people knew and understood that the oil companies would end tonight.
There is a plant that can be grown three times in a growing season, that would feed bio mass cleaner than wood.
The oil companies would like to kill people like me. Plastic is not a renewable resource by any means. It is oil based wastes.
