I disagree. We use plastic because it's cheap, lightweight, waterproof and not (very) toxic.

If we had plastic that is not transparent and biodegraded in a year, it would be perfectly fine, as it would cover almost all food packaging cases.

But, unfortunately, we use plastics for everything these days. I saw even some cars are now made of plastic (Bezos's Slate).
