Nice thing about evolution is that if everyone keeps eating plastic for a few centuries, eventually we'll evolve to digest it properly.

Of course most will die at first. But that's a price evolution is always willing to pay.




Will we evolve, or will our gut bacteria evolve first?

Regardless, I am now picturing a future where evolved humans find the smell of plastic appetizing.


Also a good way to solve gun violence, if you're very patient.
