Do you see us going back to Glass and metal reusable syringes?

Or newspaper, for meats and other foods?

Or non-vulcanized rubber for tires? (Aka natural latex)

Or sheep skin condoms?

Or glass bottles for everything?

Or tarpaper and twine wire insulation?

Or unlined tin cans for food? (Anything acidic would be uncannable)

Or any of a million other basic ‘background’ things we use or interact with daily? Like hell, computers?

And thats even ignoring that crude oil is a natural substance that even seeps from the ground on it’s own in many places.

I prefer glass bottles and they are far easier to recycle. (Not that my cities waste collection bothers to do so and I have to go out of to do so).

New material has never been exposed to anything dangerous, so dangerous contamination never needs to be removed.

It’s a big reason why plastic is so rarely recycled anywhere that it touches food or goes into someone’s body.
