Hi Ricky! Thanks for this. So, that's 99 pounds (45 kilos) of plastic produced for every human annually? BTW, you left the most significant piece of good news to save us from climate collapse and the suffering of future generations: PEW survey reveals 47% of American adults 18-50 have chosen NOT to reproduce, as much as that upset the kleptocrats like the Muskrat & Co. HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR! Gregg
This is one of your finest essays Ricky. Severe health issues have significantly slowed my Substack reading/publishing since early December so I was slow getting to this issue. It is very impressive research and very scary. Yours is an important voice and chronicler of these catastrophic times and I look forward to your every issue.
Thank you Ricky for your big picture and call to action
My mini-book, Simply Reversing the Eco-crises, designs a simple tipping point -- in the form of a regenerative decision-making process usable by people everywhere -- for reversing the planet's ecological crises as a whole: https://www.erikkvam.com/simply-reversing-the-eco-crises/
Excellent read - give the bad news then remind us we are doing something to try and counter it - electric cars - what happens to the old batteries? How are they disposed of?

Many thanks for a thought-provoking piece. At least conservation is improving ecosystems!
