    Possibly worse, we got rid of lead gasoline, there’s no getting rid of plastics

    I’m sure the rich will have a treatment for it before too long and the rest of us will just suck it up

    Fun fact: it’s not the plastics itself thats usually the problem, but rather the solvents and conditioning agents used to characterize the plastic during manufacture

          Lemmy should be capitalized since it’s a proper noun.
