But have you thought about the shareholders?

Can we put the shareholders outside the environment?

Half of all plastics ever manufactured have been made in the last 15 years. https://www.forbes.com/sites/sap/2024/04/17/earth-day-2024-p...

it's an issue.

Disposable garbage cameras aside.. World population was around 3 billion in 1960s, now it is more than 8 billion.

More people means more plastic is manufactured.

Note: I dont say anything against recycling, in fact we should do it.

Maybe we should replace plastic with aluminium where possible and reusable glassware

Recycling just doesn't work for plastics. If anything, the only parts of the recycling system that are functional today are for paper, glass and metal.

Internalize profits, externalize costs.

Can we for once, put our energy and time behind making things that last?

When I worked in 1-hour photo, the inner metal+plastic 35mm film cans all went into one barrel, the outer 35mm plastic canisters all went into another barrel, and the disposable cameras all went into a third barrel.

These were kept separated, bagged up as needed, and the bags were picked up by the Kodak truck at night along with all of the send-out orders.
