Reply to comment by VikingBorealis in 4 giant offshore terminals proposed in Texas would increase US oil export capacity by 6.5 million bpd. This July US oil exports hit their record monthly high: 3.8 million bpd by Dylan-Baddour

We do have a Neanderthal problem right now. But I think our bigger problem is not the people, who must make smaller changes, rather the corporations causing the bigger problems.

The people alone cannot make the necessary changes until we get our large corporations brought to heel.

I’m with you in that the people force the necessary changes. I’m saying that my recycling of plastic isn’t doing much in the big scheme.

I'd say that in Europe where a high percentage of plastic is recycled, it would have a large impact if we stopped.

Ah. I’m in the US and it’s very unclear whether the recyclables we separate are actually being recycled.
