Our generation and the next are really fuck up. We have suffered and continue to suffer the pollution caused by capitalism and its political allies in full force. Respiratory diseases, allergies, hormonal disorders, cancers, all these are on the rise and pollution (capitalism) is the cause.


And since people are still voting for right-wing idiots in the majority, it's not going to stop.

Same reason plastics are so useful, they're biologically inert. They don't get broken down by organisms in the same way your body doesn't have a mechanism for isolating and removing them, they just build up and get in the way of other processes.

What about edible gold which you can eat in a fancy restaurant. That doesn't get broken down either but surely it comes out inside the poop right? Why is it not the same with plastic particles?

Plastic particles actually are somewhat bioavailable, unlike gold which is totally inert. It can mimic hormones and cause severe dysfunction.

It's not the plastics I think. Watched a doco many years ago and the chemicals added to plastics to make them flexible, UV resistant, etc leech into food and drink. Water is probably meh, but anything containing fats or oils in contact with plastic for extended periods (like a packet of crisps or a tin of soup) is going straight into your brain probably.

Microplastics might end up blocking tiny tubules in your kidneys though for example. This may progress to something like cancer.

Why don't you name them?
Why do you cry for collecive punishment and blame, when there is clear as day cause and effect and responsibility?
Why not point to Nestle, Google, Doc Morris, procter and gamble, exxon mobile and all their foundations and subsidiaries?

Why demand collectivd punishment for the commen men?
Why not call out their names?
Why use abstract concepts and collective punishment logic:
>the capitalists
Why not identifying the thieves of land and resources and exploiters of nature?
Why pretend it is a homogene,monolithic group, that mostly consists of harmless idiots?
Are you afraid, to directly point at a certain as death enemy of nature, humanity and life itself?

Explain to me how voting for democrats will reduce plastic use and how you will convince people to buy glass bottles that are more expensive than plastic bottles. Capitalist market is a response to consumers. If you choose to buy cheaper products, companies will continue to produce cheap products.

Funny enough it would be more realistic to get plastic banned in a right wing world because microplastic has estrogen effects on the body and right wingers would definitely be against that (makes men weak, feminine, gay, reduces sperm count), while left wingers would support making men more like women and reducing sperm count? leftists love that because of "overpopulation".

Because Republicans love money, and they love businesses, but more than that they love cheap supplies and will place profit margins over health.
It's not a solution your standard politician is going to give a damn about or even be likely to try to touch because of how much it will uproot the way that everything is done.

In a separate post up the thread >>15188310, I made a similar point. I'm not arguing that democrats would do anything about it either. It would uproot entire industries and completely restructure how we do manufacturing and production, storage, medical suppkies, literally fucking everything anymore. All of these things have plasticizer agents. No politicians, ZERO politicians are going to touch that because they would be done away with for disrupting incomes of other politicians and businesses that benefit.
We are Fucked, capital F.

at the turn of the century the environmentalists were militantly anti-globalism because they knew that pollution as well as labor abuse which was illegal locally, would be committed off shore if the globalists were allowed to get away with it.
