More than 99% of rigorous scientific studies conclude that climate change is caused by the activities of humans.
Efforts to counteract both the processes that cause that increase in global temperatures and the pollution arising from human consumption of plastics have increased considerably, with greener options more widely available.
Over on Twitter, however, Canadian climate change sceptic Ryan Gerritsen had ‘evidence’ that green measures are a scam. Brace yourself.
There were, unsurprisingly, a number of like-minded individuals on his side.

all smoke and mirrors. NOTHING is green “except” the $$ in the governments pockets from pushing this agenda

There were also many people who saw the giant flaw in his conclusion.

I’ll explain it at a level you may be able to understand:

The plastic liner is 10× less plastic than a normal container, it also breaks down faster and uses less energy to recycle.
Just because you are a NPC who’s stuck in a (Hate the next thing) routine, doesn’t mean your illiterate observations are factual.

This isn’t a scam, it’s just less plastic, it’s literally on their website.

Imagine not understanding that a plastic bag contains less plastic than a giant bottle https://t.co/4DO9TBwl2e

looks like a design that reduces the amount of plastic used and has more recyclable parts, how is this bad or a scam? pic.twitter.com/MCE9fLuA91

i hate these things as much as anyone, but it is obviously to REDUCE plastic waste, not remove it

This is the same concept as boxed wine and it is more eco friendly

The plastic insert is biodegradeable. That entire bottle, plastic sleeve and all, will break down into it’s base materials in a year or so. Your solid plastic bottle will still be here when our species is extinct.
This is not a scam. You’re just dumb.

Are you stupid? There’s more then 80% less plastic; the cardboard is there for protection.

Do you know what the word “less” means?

Weighs less, uses less plastic, and is made of cardboard which we recycle at far higher rates. Could it be sold in a plastic bag alone wobbling on the shelf? Technically yes. Would you buy it? No.

Not really a scam, just a way to use less plastics. Or did you think putting liquid against cardboard would be a good idea? https://t.co/PJQKlCjmpT

This is the detergent brand I used when I lived in Germany. It’s all biodegradable but I understand that riling up brain dead chuds on xitter is profitable https://t.co/fycNlZIsbe

It’s not a scam, it’s all biodegradable. We need stuff like this everywhere. Plastic is killing us all and it’s mostly not recyclable https://t.co/93wQYQ3r1m

A person with common sense would see that there is exponentially less plastic being used and is a lot less harmful than the manufacturing of the usual packaging for this. https://t.co/NTgItZPvHP
