I find it so amusing that man in his infinite wisdom thinks
that one thing (a heated dish) is a solution for one thing, but
nature decides otherwise!
People forget that man is a PART of Nature, & whatever we do, in our arrogance thinking it's everyti8ng cataclysmic, Nature simply asbsorbs into her paradigm.
That RI-sized island of plastic floating in the Pacific that rco-groups & lobbyists are going nuts over? Natuire absorbed that long ago -- dismantling it, however, will instantly kill millions of living creatures & cause untold numbers to lose their home, & more quickly become prey.
George Carlin suggested, perhaps tongue-n-cheeik, perhaps as a prophet(forthteller, not foreteller) that Nature evolved humans explicitly because Nature waned plastic & this was the most efficient way to get it. . .
It amuses me that this does not contradict any known science, so may well be true. . . No, I don't BELIEVE it,. I think. . .
Doesn't matter what I think or do -- Nature(or "God"-- I don't discriminate) will out in the end, regardless of my thoughts, statements, or actions.
I'm at peace with the fact that in the universe, I'm insignicant.
Even onm Earth, I pretty much am; 1 in 8,000,000,000+ isn't a significant ratio -- in mos5t any rounding system, my existance is zero. What do I care -- sleep, wake, drink coffee, get paid, play online -- for me, I'm a 1 in 1 -- you can't get more significant than 100%
Yup, I relate everything to mathematics, as that's the language all existance(the universe) was written in.
In my houeshold, I'm 1:5(20%); but our family isn't a Democracy -- it's a Parentocracy, so maybe I'm more like 30%.
Doesn't matter; got coffee & I get paid.
One day my molecules will join the rest of Nature, to be absorbed as per her existing & evolving paradigms ("pair o' diggums")
