You're right, all those studies and scientists are actually pulling that stuff out of their asses, just to be contrarians.
Idk man remember when that ozone hole was supposed to kill us all but we started fixing it in like 10 years? How about when we decided plastic would choke the oceans to death only to find that microbes are busily learning how to break down all those man made forever polymers? Member those? Meeeember?
I don't know about 10 years, but the hole has yet to close completely and required effort on OUR part; and if you think that something like the Pacific Trash Island is something that only we "decided" was bad, then I can't convince you. Just "member" these when you run out of convenient excuses.
From when we discovered the ozone hole to banning hairspray and shit was about 10 years.
Also, I didn't say we decided the pacific trash hole was bad. I said we decided it would kill all the life in the ocean, and that was hilariously wrong.
Have you taken a reading comprehension course in the last 10 or 15 years?
