    This video has come at a time when my students are working on UN SDGs. Excellent timing. Thanks.

    Our law enforcement in Indonesia is too weak.
    Regular people and big corporation close their eyes to this problem.
    Churches were stuck when come to this issue.

    Plastics are very useful but their environmental impacts need to be controlled!

    Aha… it’s a 50/100 good idea. Well, it’s easy to say that, because it will take a bit of while. And what about the plastic in the nature?? How to get rid of it. There is no specific why, we simply can’t. The only way is actually send it to another planet* not space* it’s the only way. It may cost allot of many to launch a single rocket. But if we find a cheaper and a faster way to send it to another planet with another technology it will be awesome…

    It seems like this video was bought and paid for by the plastics industry. Also about the elephants. They were running out of elephant's and needed a replacement. It wasent out of the kindess of there hearts.

    Are you suggesting that factories that recycle plastic, produce less gas and heat, than the tiny microscopic bacteria that breakdown bio plastic? That's far reaching, don't you think? 🤔

    No Sh!t Sherlock… if all plastic was 100% recycled & not wasted, then no problem. You give no practical solutions to get around what we already experience.

      what if we made hemp plastic cheaper than regular plastic? so when people buy regular plastic they're less likely to throw it away? i mean the hemp would still contribute to global warming (i didn't even know that until i watched this) but it's not like global warming is going to stop happening

    Yes we can get rid of plastic by putting money into researching replacements. This video is too basic and almost sounds like shilling for the plastic industries.

    This is never gonna happen so don't post it. The only few people that actually care are already doing their best.

    You are talking to (patronising frankly) PEOPLE. You'd best start by making better people! If it's cheap it's single use and will be discarded into the environment. You are proposing to create a plastic problem with "better-plastic". So don't mindlessly consume the old-plastic, hurry while stocks last, mindlessly consume our-new-and-improved-better-plastic. No solution has been offered here.
