As more oil is freed up by reduced demand in transport, I wonder whether we will see more cheap plastic flooding our cities. People are switching to electric in part because they are keen to reduce their reliance on petrol (and its cost), but nobody is really moving away from plastic.

There is a push to move away from disposable plastic. Why else were paper straws such a big deal?
