Kinda wild to see that leaded gasoline wasn't fully phased out until the 90's, though. I didn't realize it took that long.

It took time to phase into microplastics

I think it is still in some jet fuels

It's in aviation fuel used for propeller planes.

I'm pretty sure they're in the process of phasing it out, but considering all the other problems the FAA is having, I'm not sure it's high up on their list of priorities.

Turns out the real chemtrails are the tetraethyl lead that rained from the sky along the way.

You move to the remote Alaskan wilderness to live a-guy-style and avoid the harmful chemicals.

You drink fresh glacial water and farm your own leeks and turnips. You make your own clothes.

Every six months supplies get delivered by pontoon plane, raining lead on you as he circles to line up for landing.
