THE ALIENS CONTINUE TO MAKE PROGRESS ON THE AVATAR PROJECT

Some examples: Parts of your chosen form of transport, a decent portion of your mobile phone/laptop/pc, bits of your shoes. The guttering on your home. The lining of your fridge

If you make a special effort to look for it, you’ll find durable plastics all around you. Perhaps their ubiquity makes them disappear a bit

Ofc plastics can be made from sources other than petrochem and that needs to be pushed in the same way as alternative energy, but none are decently scaled yet

That they vetted me

My doctor calls this remodeling

Anti nationalism makes all the good points

I’m not American and I think both sides of the American political divide are bonkers

But I can’t talk as all we are doing in the UK is following you down the same mad rabbit hole

We need oil gas and plastics. Oil and gas in the short/ medium term (meaning 10-20 years) but plastics potentially for the foreseeable

we have alternative energy sources and so oil and gas should be (needs to be) the priority to wean off of but the scaling up of these needs to be properly managed

Plastics I do not see an alternative to as an end product, however it is possible to use “bio sources” to make plastic precursors so there’s a route through there but the scaling is nowhere right now

Single use plastics are a viable target but durable plastics I think are with us for the long term
