in most cases just do without it... do you reallly need to wrap your groceries in plastic to get them from the store to your home? No. do you need to ship that phone with a plastic film just to prevent it from getting scuffed? no. do you really need to use plastic dental floss that literally introduces microplastics into your body directly? well kinda... but i imagine we could use cotton based threads just as well. for other applications use glass or metal or paper.

but they're just like mamma and pappa. I don't see a good end for society now. i miss the 80's and 90's when a star trek future really seemed likely. now it feels like the only possible future is Idiocracy. i never would have expected technology to be the downfall of humanity simply because it's addictive to our fragile social minds.
