for an *imperfect* plastic free life
we might not be able to eliminate plastic from our lives completely…
but that doesn’t mean we can’t try with the habits we have control over.
countless studies show how harmful plastic is to human health, the environment, and all living beings.
creating plastic is harmful both at its extraction as petroleum (fossil fuels)
and just as detrimental at its “disposal” where plastic doesn’t actually disappear, just gets smaller and smaller…
plaguing whatever environment it’s in by leaching toxins.
therefore, we can try our best in our own homes to limit how much plastic we bring in
AND we hold polluters accountable by boycotting, pushing for regulations, and being vocal about what we want changed.
it’s an imperfect solution and action to this plastic crisis that is most definitely not your fault and not mine.
but it’s the world we’re in, so let’s focus on what we can and continue speaking out!
