Consumers didn't price the glass higher than the plastic. Companies and lack of regulations did that.

Consoomers aren't to blame. Why? Because I'm a consoomer myself and I know I'm not to blame. Not even partially. I am completely absolved from any blame because I'm a consoomer. Where does it say so? I say so. I will consoom for the economy and that's how I participate in society.

I buy plastic bottles because I'm powerless. I buy big tech products because I'm powerless to their advertising. I buy non-fairtrade products because, you guessed it, powerless. I leave the tap on while brushing my teeth because industry uses millions of litres more than I ever could making products for me to consoom. I am powerless! I can consoom anything I like, whenever I like, however I like, because I'm a weak pawn with no independence.

Nice strawman. You wanna set it on fire, or try using it on someone that it applies to?
