My point is it doesn't have to be a complete solution to replacing plastic to be able to have some benefits to replacing some plastics.

You can have local manufacturing processes so that it doesn't have to get stuck in a truck in Texas for a month.

And there'll still be uses for the long lived plastics. You don't have to use one plastic for everything - like we don't today.

Building a box that can last for centuries when you're only going to use it for 25 minutes and toss it is pretty wild if you think about it.

Bro I’m not agreeing with it, single use plastics are ridiculous. The failure in replacements continues to be what problems they solve for the supply chain.

Unless you want to eat at Applebees, a small, locally sourced, organic, etc restaurant owner can’t conjure up a supply of biodegradable containers. But your local joint can order 5000 of them and keep them in a back room in less than ideal conditions for a year at minimal costs.

Not saying it’s right, just trying to draw attention to reality
