Not to mention the basic ingredient in your plastic toys: OIL. Yes, black tea from the earth. You can drive your electric car to the hobby shop, and then feed big petro your money… in fact, one of the largest plants in the world to create the small plastic balls that are the beginning of miniatures is about 2 hours from where I live. Fun fact: the groundwater (like, a puddle) near the plant can be LIT ON FIRE! Pollution is real.
And oil prices impact the price of plastic, obviously . Plastic has an upside: it’s cheaper to ship, because it weighs less than metal (duh!).
Oil. It makes life greasy! ?
