At this point, we may as well all go to the dump and throw ourselves into the plastic recycling dumpster.

I'm not longer reading about this topic until we get some concrete steps on how to fix it in a personal level. Elimination of all food-storage plastics in our current environment is not realistic.

Let me know when plastic waste management is revolutionized because that’s the only solution.

@pdxeleven.bsky.social great piece! Scary, but necessary for everyone to know!

Thank you, Jackie.
I wish it was all rainbows and pony farts, but here we are 🤣😳😡💔

Pony farts would smell pretty darn good about now given the stench out there. Ugh 😩

While I have no scientific proof, I have long believed that plastics are the reason for the constant uptick in cases of cancer (alll the cancers) in younger and younger folks over the last few years.

That is our suspicion, too. The rise in PFOAs/Forever Chemicals in the water supply is also a HUGE culprit.

What about developmental delays and autism? I see so many more students with these disabilities, and I have been concerned that it was due to microplastics and chemicals.
