We still use plastic bags in our bins so landfill sites are full of the stuff (many councils still dont sort their household waste) but they banned them in supermarkets a while ago, where is the logic in that.
At the same time recycling opportunities have risen exponentially. There will always be some non-recyclable waste, the proportion that it constitutes continued to fall significantly. The logic is reduce the need for plastics, reduce the supply and ultimately the amount of microplastics we end up consuming through the food chain will start to reduce too.

*I chose microplastics in the food chain as a random example as it’s having a direct effect on us. Oceanic macroplastics are just as bad. But they mainly f**k up the sealife.
