Same - thought it was an IG slurper.

I tried to look into some of the brands and their importing...
supply-chain-plastics need to be evaluated.
On point #2, the mission (https://www.plasticfreeindex.com/about) is to focus on plastic's impact on human health not environmental. Although I agree the impact of plastics on the planet is important, I want to bring awareness to the major impact it is having on humans.
Big fan of Ibex and Arms of Andes. Hoping to try out Iron Roots and Appalachian Gear Company soon.
Would love to learn if there’s any help you need with the project
How can someone like my support this project? Do you get paid as an affiliate?
Right now there is no affiliates or monetization etc. I just found myself in the same position as you and wanted to offer what I learned to others.
Just sharing the project with people would be much appreciated... As well as submitting any brands I may have missed.

But find a way where the bills of lading must require from each a document of material constituents for a given shipment by %....
Look at the rubber ducky, or the ships sinking carrying thousands of cars (made of thousands of plastics) etc....
So one could ostensibly track shipments based on an updated digital bill of lading claiming how much plastic is coming from who to whom...
However - You will always lose these battles due to human trafficking of everything
So - track the sources distributors of plastics and who THEIR largest customers are.
