I dont really follow.

You think people are going to point to this as a reason not decarbon?

Im sure that idiots will, but those people were never going to make any meaningful effort to decarbon anyway.

    I am continuously amazed how people keep confusing plastic pollution with carbon pollution. They are not even close!

    Settle down mate. Im well aware that plastic pollution is not carbon pollution.

    The comment i replied to suggested that solving plastic pollution might discourage people from addressing pollution all together. Plastic and carbon are the most problematic pollutants.
