    “By 2032, it would require plastic producers to reduce the amount of plastic they make by 25 percent”

    I’m looking at this less as a start and more like observing a house engulfed in flames and hearing that a fire truck is gonna bring a bit of water in the morning

        It also fails to address some rather large specifics in regard to plastics and microplastics. Tire dust is a leading source of microplastics for example, and vehicles continue to get heavier, and mileage isn’t going down. It’s cool they’re doing something, but they’ve been making small incremental environmental changes for decades which led us to where we are today.
