      plastic is not unnecessary - it is genuinely wonderful, we just have to learn to use it only for stuff which is meant to stay, and not just single use and throw

        Plastic based clothing sheds micro plastics over time, especially when you wash them.

        Maybe plastic has its use cases, but it should be a lot more narrow and contained. If we could use alternatives that don’t last forever it would be a lot better.
