I don't think you're saying much

Hint: They went well beyond justified methods a long time ago
I've been searching for the same thing - a PFA/PFC free shell to go over my regular trousers. I've tried these three and haven't had any luck with any of them:
-
Patagonia Torrentshell: I could hardly take a full stride in these, and sizing up was like wearing oversized parachute pants
-
Marmot equivalent: Much more mobility, but just not enough for me to pedal on a bike without the pants becoming very taut. I fear they'd rip after a while.
-
Outdoor Research equivalent: Satisfactory mobility, but for some reason the ankle cuffs are really wide - water would definitely splash up inside these if you were walking through puddles, so it feels like they miss the mark a little especially considering these are a bit more expensive than the others.
I'm still looking, open to recommendations!
They pose the same question in the article - it’s barely recyclable if recyclable at all
Good for them, keep it up
Both efforts are intertwined and can run in parallel
Nice! I wonder if they plan to integrate Pixelfed with Loops so they can work as one app - replace the Instagram/Reels combo
A friend of mine works in pharma research and said the amount of plastic waste is staggering. The general belief is that materials need to be sterile and this is the only way, however it sounds like they're beginning to question this narrative.
It sounds like a potentially lucrative problem to solve!
For sure! However these are conscious choices that informed consumers can make. What I'd love to see is a world where an uninformed consumer can choose default products that have no impact on the environment because the government has made it so. No additional effort is required on the part of the consumer.
Want foodstuffs? Those are purchasable by weight and if you need a container they're cardboard or glass. Want soap? The store stocks bars of it or liquid by weight.
The irony of using an AI generated image for this post...
AI imagery makes any article look cheaper in my view, I am more inclined to "judge the book by its cover".
Why would you slap something so lazy on top of a piece of writing you (assuming it isn't also written by AI) put time and effort into?

I've happily found that there is much more interaction here than on Mastodon :)
