Speaking of books @ATP weren't you the one who showed an alternate history of zombies invading 1960s Krakow ?

It was not only Kraków,but entire world,but from polish perspective.
Written by some comie,becouse all catholics there are bad,when brave soviet puppets fight zombies valiantly.And still lost.
As usual,forget both author and title.

I propose we build A WALL around SE Asia to corral their sea trash!

On a more serious note, if it's true that China isn't a major contributor (which I am very skeptical about) then targeting the biggest fish is suddenly a lot more doable. Obviously this is a matter of will and not population, since some of the largest population ones have smaller footprints, like Indonesia and Bangladesh.

The Philippines, being an archipelago, has lots more surface area relative to volume for the plastic to get to the ocean. Most of Mainland China's trash probably just stays on land.

In the world I grew up in, stuff from the shops was in paper bags, and milk or other liquids was in glass bottles. One could bring the empty bottles back to the shop and get money for doing so. Then sometime in the 1990's or so, it all changed to "disposable" plastic.

Last I heard. china and india together were responsible for over 90%.
so this chart seems a bit odd to me.

True however I think there is merit to going back to the old ways. Less microplastics too.

if they said asia in general then that is correct. only brazil is mentioned and the rest is just grouped up.

I am attempting to teach this as an educator.

Unfortunatly, also as an educator, my reputation and consecutively public image is something I cannot overlook.

Hard to live, but kinda awesome.

It was so fucking difficuly being scorned during the vax the unvaxxed phase and everyone thought it was ok to treat like shit if you didn't want to be a lab rat.
Now I understand how people in the Persian Gulf and Iran must feel.

It was easier for me because I used to be an outcast so I got on better mentally than others (also weight, I went from 108 to 85 kilos)
