The less sense it makes, the greater the benefit to making us submit to it. I recall when plastic bags were introduced because they are photo degradable. My immediate thought was "But they're buried in landfills. They are not gonna be staked out over the countryside for 100 years until they're gone or we're gone." And here we are today. It seems that plastic is bad unless you're talking about the personalities of the entertainer and the talking heads who push this garbage.
