Another reminder of how interconnected everything is. Plastic pollution isn’t just an ocean or wildlife issue anymore. Has this been factored into current climate models, or is this a new variable they’re adding?
The fact that it’s comparable to 16% of black carbon’s warming effect is pretty significant. Great find ,thanks for sharing. I’m curious how much of this is from single-use plastics vs. more durable sources

When are we gonna realize that plastics are crap and we need to go back to biodegradable materials?
Or, rather, since SHAREHOLDERS won’t listen… How to make them profitable enough for shareholders so they decide to leave plastics?

The valcano that is about to erupt should help with global cooling.

In a few millennia the r/plasticage sub will be showing definitive plastic layers in the sediment and they will ponder at how we nearly encapsulated the planet in a substance of our own creation that nearly wiped us out.

Petroleum is an aggregate mineral substance, there’s a theory it might actually be produced over hundreds of millions of years of accumulated waste (feces) of nematodes. But no, it’s not from dinosaurs or plants. Rockefeller and Global Finance and Banking Hierarchies paid good money to promote that falsehood, all so they could claim it was a scarce „limited“ resource in order justify establishing it as a controlled market and to charge exhorbitant prices for it, all in order to maintain the global status quo the Finance industry has been presiding over since feudal times.
