I can’t believe the amount of plastic we use with no clear end point for it. Surely we would be stopping by now or at least making all plastic have to break down in a short time.  I read about Gyres in the ocean and how every bit of sea life is now eating plastic and I am appalled.  If plastic had the value of steel we would be mining it, harvesting it or at least recycling it.  Hence the boat and the ocean full of steel.
