Plastic seals food, sterile medical implements, medicine, beverages, etc… it’s seems like plastic is used as a way to seal things safely. Post pandemic rising, I see even more. My work used to be have plastic utensils in the cafeteria, for example, an already wasteful thing. Now, post-2020, every fork, knife, and spoon is individually wrapped in a plastic wrapper. I feel like the more my desire to escape plastic intensifies, the more plastic I see all around me everywhere.

How can we get away from plastic as a safety layer?

    How do you suppose that’s an opposite, and why are you stalking my posts?

      One dismisses the supposed importance of plastics, the other dismisses the importance of needing to remove them.

      If I seem stalk-ish, it’s only due to how engaged in this place I am. No harm my friend (or at least I don’t think so).
