A huge majority of crude oil production goes towards fuels and we still have an enormous problem with the amount of plastic we use, we can definitely stand to drill less
No, bacteria (and some other things like fungi) have evolved to eat some kinds of plastic, and we don’t yet know how scalable that is or if it has significant environmental side effects. Regardless, the bigger matter here is that we burn a huge majority of extracted crude oil. If we stop doing that, we can drill far less
I don’t know who told you that, in human terms the plastic problem is permanent, it’s everywhere, in our foodchain, in our bodies, no bacteria aren’t going to save us from it. There are also virtually unregulated chemicals in plastics that get disseminated from them.
Both LSD and cannabis have seriously underutilized medical uses, and compared to alkohol which is legal and socially accepted in every European country, they aren’t that bad even if you overdo it.
Drill less, burn less, plant more, catch some rays and wind.
Being old school hippy was always the way.
Drilling is fine. Oil has thousands of uses, burning it is fucking stupid

The plastic problem is temporary, bacteria has already evolved to eat it. The best use for oil is in drugs. Pain relievers, antibiotics, sanitisers

Lets just skip the mind altering drugs this time.
Aint that a strange thing, that mind narrowing drugs are legal?
