    Warn about how plastic (especially single-use) is a major pollutant, with microplastics managing to get into our organs with long term consequences we are yet to grasp.

    It did push our technology and way of living forward, but at what cost?

      That wouldn’t work because you’re a single person fighting against the same companies that finance climate change denialism. Hell, between understanding that leaded gasoline was harmful and banning it were at least 20 years

        Yeah but the OP question isn’t asking what you would do, but rather what you’d change. If the question was about what people would do, half these answers have a lot of explaining to do.
