Reply to comment by lilmammamia in Recycling plastic is practically impossible — and the problem is getting worse by chrisdh79

Dude I don't think you are thinking about all the plastic we produce and consume.

Your phone has plastic elements in it, the airbags used to cushion items in transit use plastic. The packaging of most consumer goods uses plastic. The packaging of lots of food items such as fruits and vegetables and meat uses plastic.

Go over every item in your house, notice how many items you have that use plastic or came in a plastic packaging. The issue is beyond just consumption patterns.

I was replying to a comment thread about plastic bottles vs glass bottles specifically. Every comment one makes cannot possibly encompass the whole plastic issue.
