    How about governmental action that will severely and immediately end most consumer plastic waste? No? Just pie-in-the-sky techno-solutions?

      How about both?

        We don’t get either, but one is actually possible, the other is techno-fetish shit that doesn’t exist and never will.

          Wood dust and tannins are techno-fetishis shit? And what exactly makes you highly qualified to judge the viability of this again, Mr Big Science Man?

      Of course, we need government action! But do you know the micro plastic content coming from tap water? Do you have much of a choice as to what you are consuming? Wouldn’t you want to filter it out?

      As far as technology, this isn’t pie in the sky, it seems fairly simple and I wouldn’t be surprised if home-made solar punk versions start appearing in zines and online forums.

        Why not just have our local municipal water supplies filter out the micro-plastics why is drinking water an individual problem that each household has to solve themselves?
