Yeah it's been bad since fall. Hot cold wet dry.. Plus not knowing if it's covid, rsvp(?), flu or a cold... I been sick for like 6 months and a bunch of other people have too.

There's finally snow (again) but it's been getting warm and rainy every few weeks.

quote:

The plastics industry would like a word with your kids
School campuses are a new battleground in an increasingly bitter brawl over plastic�s impact on the environment

WARREN, Mich. � Wearing a lab coat, Eve Vitale asked a chemistry class at Warren Mott High School if anyone had heard anything bad about plastics. Hands shot up. It doesn�t degrade, said one student. It hurts the environment, said another.

But �that�s not really the plastic�s fault,� said Vitale, chief executive of the Society of Plastics Engineers Foundation, a group of industry professionals. �That�s the fault of humanity.� After warning what a �mess� it would be in supermarkets and hospitals without plastics, Vitale instructed that the plastic pollution crisis could be addressed through stepped up personal responsibility, product innovation and improvements in recycling.

School campuses are a new battleground in an increasingly bitter brawl over plastics, as groups like Vitale�s seek to improve the reputation of a material that has become infamous as an environmental menace. The efforts are partially funded by companies involved in or dependent on fossil fuel production, through donations and conference sponsorships. Plastics manufacturing involves large amounts of oil and natural gas. Some of these companies see plastics as an opportunity to continue growing as demand for gasoline and diesel dissipates amid the rise of electric vehicles.

Vitale�s group dispatches its �PlastiVan� program throughout the academic year, with its team of plastic evangelists talking up the wonders of polymers to young audiences. Once housed out of an actual van, the program has since grown into a sophisticated messaging and recruitment operation, visiting as many as 175 schools annually. In Northeast Texas, hundreds of Girl Scouts have been awarded a PlastiVan-sponsored merit badge.

Another industry ally working separate from PlastiVan, conservative advocacy group PragerU, provides public school teachers in at least five states a classroom video that assures students they should not feel guilty about using so much plastic because plastics actually help the environment � an assertion many environmental scientists would find absurd.

...............

�This is a huge fight for the future of our kids,� said Margaret Galbraith, who coordinates a program in Port Washington, N.Y., with students working to ban single-use plastics from school cafeterias and older kids visiting elementary school classrooms to teach about the ills of plastic use. �The industry wants to lay the pollution problem on individual consumers; meanwhile, it is impossible for individuals to fix this. Plastic pollution is everywhere because of these companies. Recycling as a solution is a myth. It�s crazy to me that schools would let them come in to promote this false solution.�

................

But public school students are encouraged not to worry about it in the pro-industry teachings recently approved for classroom use in Florida, Oklahoma, Arizona and Montana, as well as some Texas school districts. In those places, state officials greenlit PragerU videos and lesson plans aimed at providing students an �alternative to the dominant left-wing ideology in culture, media, and education.�

Much of the organization�s seed money came from Dan and Farris Wilks, billionaire brothers from Texas who made their fortune from fracking and run a church called the Assembly of Yahweh, where they have preached that climate change is God�s will. Among the PragerU videos targeted at public school students is a 10-minute cartoon about plastics.

In it, a child comes home from school stressed out because his math teacher is trying to enlist students in her crusade to get rid of all plastic on campus. �She really scared me,� the boy says. �If it�s so bad for the environment, why is it in almost everything?�

The thing is that CYP450 is a superfamily of enzymes, there's like 60 different CYP450s in humans. So just knowing it interferes with a CYP450 doesn't tell you much.
