Stories like this pop up all the time "Bugs eat plastics" "Plastics turned back into fuel" "Plastics reused into new objects"

None of it turns into any real solutions, and I can only assume it's a greenwashing campaign with a science veneer, by spreading the idea that eventually science will make plastics fully recyclable/reusable/compostable.

The greenwashing plastics/petroleum industry is preying on the idea that there's a solution on the horizon for the unsolvable problem of plastics recycling and reuse.

Please reduce or even eliminate plastics use, if possible.

Especially single use plastics.
