Thanks for reading and responding. It's clear you are passionate and knowledgable about plastic and climate. Yes, industry is very good at distraction and not taking responsibility. The idea of individuals reducing their carbon footprint and going plastic free misplaces the responsibility. It's time to put it back on industry - both to reduce use and create alternatives that are not fossil fuel dependent. For instance, there is work being done on lower emission concrete. https://www.specifyconcrete.org/blog/eco-friendly-alternatives-to-traditional-concrete.

thanks for all you are doing.
