"This is the paradox of plastic, or at least our current obsession with
it: learning about the scale of the problem moved us to act, but the
more we push against it, the more it begins to seem just as boundless
and intractable as all the other environmental problems we have failed
to solve. And it brings us up against the same obstacles: unregulatable
business, the globalised world, and our own unsustainable way of life."
