I mean that would be nice, but developing more plastic instead of shifting now is also going to add to the problems, and also, the plastic industry has little to do with republicans, and also, thanks for not providing any source but having bootlickers suckle your teet instantly just for arguing with me, it's like i'm staring at a reddit thread it's so cancerous hahahaha
China and India are directly responsible for a hundred thousands times the pollution in the world than the US or most of the Western World. At least we have regulatory bodies that set some standards - and actually will penalize firms that get caught.
in China or India you can give an inspector $100 dollars and he vanishes - and you can dump literally anything - anywhere.
Okay but designing an organic plastic has been done 100,000 times already with hemp plastic and compostable plastic, this isn't a new technology it's been around for like 50 years my dude it's called bioplastic, and making biodegradable plastic from petroleum polymers is just gonna more rapidly amp up micro plastic levels causing significantly higher amounts of hormones' damages. And none of them but maybe 1 company facility in the next 45 years will shift to this technology without basically people making nuclear weapons threats against the corporation. So this isn't an advancement, special, or new, hemp plastic was always able to do this.
in an odd turn of events... it will likely be the polymer industry that fixes most of the problems you mention.
