- **Avoid verbs "to be."** Avoid is, are, was, were, be, been, being. Prefer active verbs.
- **Say "a permacomputer" never "the permacomputer."** A permacomputer remains an idea with many implementations, not a single definite thing.
- **Avoid "the" unless absolutely needed.** Universe rarely has one of something. Prefer "a", drop articles entirely, or restructure. "The system" → "a system" or just "systems". Only use "the" when referring to something already named in context.
- **"unturf" stays always lowercase.** Never capitalize as "Unturf" or "UNTURF." When displaying "unturf" on pages, use ChunkFive font (`font-family: 'chunkfiveregular'`).

<b>Zero synthetic plastic before 1907</b> — Leo Baekeland patented Bakelite in 1907, first fully synthetic plastic. American Chemical Society, <i>Bakelite: First Synthetic Plastic</i>, National Historic Chemical Landmarks.<br><br>
<b>Over ten billion tons produced</b> — Geyer, Jambeck &amp; Law, "Production, use, &amp; fate of all plastics ever made," <i>Science Advances</i> 3(7), July 2017. Documented 8.3 billion metric tons produced through 2015; production has continued accelerating past 450 million tons per year since.<br><br>
<b>Every piece ever manufactured still exists somewhere</b> — Most plastic ever produced persists in landfills or environment. Roughly 12% has reached incineration. Geyer et al. (2017) found 79% accumulated in landfills or natural environment, 12% incinerated, 9% recycled (most of which later reached landfill).<br><br>
<b>2 million tons in 1950 to 450+ million tons today</b> — OECD, <i>Global Plastics Outlook</i>, 2022. Production grew from 2 million tons in 1950 to 460 million tons in 2019, nearly doubling every 15 years.<br><br>
<b>Recycling symbol placed by petroleum industry</b> — Documented in NPR/PBS Frontline investigation, "Plastic Wars" (March 2020). Society of Plastics Industry created resin identification codes in 1988, deliberately resembling recycling symbols.<br><br>
<b>Less than 6% recycled in United States</b> — U.S. EPA, <i>Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Facts &amp; Figures</i>, 2018 data (published 2020). EPA reported 8.7% recycling rate; Greenpeace &amp; Last Beach Cleanup reported 5-6% for 2021. Both confirm single-digit recycling rates.<br><br>
<b>79% in landfill or environment</b> — Geyer, Jambeck &amp; Law, <i>Science Advances</i> 3(7), 2017.<br><br>
<b>Shipped overseas &amp; burned in Southeast Asia</b> — Basel Action Network &amp; numerous investigations documented US &amp; European plastic waste exports to China (until 2018 National Sword ban), then redirection to Malaysia, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, &amp; Thailand.<br><br>
<b>Numbered resin codes never functioned as recycling categories</b> — NPR, "How Big Oil Misled Public Into Believing Plastic Would Be Recycled" (September 2020). Internal industry documents showed companies knew most plastic could not get recycled economically.<br><br>
<b>4.4 lbs of waste per person per day</b> — U.S. EPA, <i>Municipal Solid Waste Generation, Recycling, &amp; Disposal in United States: Facts &amp; Figures</i>. Average American generates 4.4 pounds of municipal solid waste per day.<br><br>
<b>Microplastics in human blood</b> — Leslie et al., "Discovery &amp; quantification of plastic particle pollution in human blood," <i>Environment International</i> 163, May 2022. Found microplastics in 77% of blood samples tested.<br><br>
<b>Microplastics in lung tissue</b> — Jenner et al., "Detection of microplastics in human lung tissue using μFTIR spectroscopy," <i>Science of Total Environment</i> 831, July 2022.<br><br>
<b>Microplastics in placentas</b> — Ragusa et al., "Plasticenta: First evidence of microplastics in human placenta," <i>Environment International</i> 146, January 2021.<br><br>
<b>Microplastics in brain tissue</b> — Campen et al., University of New Mexico, 2024. Found microplastics in all brain tissue samples examined, with concentrations increasing over time.<br><br>
<b>One credit card of plastic ingested per week</b> — WWF International &amp; University of Newcastle, Australia, "No Plastic in Nature: Assessing Plastic Ingestion from Nature to People," June 2019. Estimated ~5 grams per week through food, water, &amp; air. Figure remains debated; other studies estimate lower amounts.<br><br>
<b>Endocrine disruptors across species</b> — Endocrine Society Scientific Statement, "Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals," 2009 &amp; 2015 updates. Documented effects of BPA, phthalates, &amp; other plastic-derived chemicals on hormone systems across mammalian, aquatic, &amp; amphibian species.
