[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well we are doing it to ourselves. Also don’t let your kids drink from garden hose. [/quote]

OP here yes we are.

I feel  like we are also constantly being gaslit.

It is almost impossible to find any juice bottled in glass. Its near impossible to find salad dressing bottled in glass. Acidic foods in plastic is a no no which we have known for a very long time.

And yet we are just supposed to accept this. And no one is more willing to accept this nonsense than the American Consumer. And where they arent willing to accept it, its forced on them anyway. Not everyone can get into a car and drive to an organic food store to buy organic glass bottled juice. Heck I don't even do that anymore. I forced my kid to give up all juice and eat only whole fruit and drink water. Sure, thats fine too. But I am in a position where I can buy things like whole fruit.

The kicker was when they started bottling some liquors in plastic. And even wine on planes is now in plastic.

If my family has to drink out of a plastic bottle of water, I dump out the bottled water and refill from a faucet or water fountain. That water, likely also municipal, has been sitting there absorbing plastic endocrine disruptors. We are poisoning and overwhelming the environment with plastics. I avoid anything packaged in plastic whenever possible. I still have to do it sometimes though.

We have cut down on our plastic waste a lot. It isn't recycled for the most part. Not needed: produce baggies, grocery store bags shampoo and conditioner bottles, liquid soap bottles, laundry detergent bottles. I don't buy those products in that packaging anymore. [/quote]
