Do the benefits of plastics outweigh the costs?
January 23, 2024
"It was 1869, and something needed to be done.
"With the price of #ivory skyrocketing, billiard ball manufacturers were scrambling for an alternative. The prized material derived from #ElephantTusks was being used to craft such things as knife handles, piano keys, dice, dominoes, chessmen, and yes, billiard balls. Now, with elephants growing scarce from overhunting, the wonder material was becoming difficult to procure and unreasonably expensive. After all, one tusk would yield just four or five balls. Leading pool table manufacturer Phelan and Collender offered $10,000 ($225,000 today) to any inventor who could discover a replacement for ivory.
"Albany inventor John Wesley Hyatt answered the call, molding together camphor, nitrocellulose, and alcohol under extreme pressure. His concoction, called #celluloid, was one of the first synthetic plastics. While Hyatt’s creation proved an unwieldy material for billiard balls — insufficiently durable and mildly explosive when struck — it inspired others to formulate something better. A few decades later, American chemist Leo Baekeland came up with the petroleum-derived #Bakelite. It became the first commercially successful synthetic plastic, and very likely saved elephants from extinction.
"More than a century later, this story has morphed into an intriguing irony…With their creation, plastics probably saved countless species — both plants and animals — from extinction. Derived from byproducts of #FossilFuel production, which had previously gone unused, the invention of synthetic plastics meant that humans no longer had to pillage the living #NaturalWorld to produce various products for a technologically advancing global society. Fast-forward to today: Plastics are demonized for eroding the environment and endangering human health, prompting many to wonder if we’d be better off without them."

"In Canada, where universal health care is a cornerstone of our values, we are facing a primary care access crisis. The problem is multi-faceted and not just due to a decline in the number of licensed family doctors for the first time since the mid-1990s. The role of private primary care “boutique clinics” – and their effects on access and equity in the public system – must be considered."
Recently, a recruiter approached me with an enticing job offer: an income of $390,000 to $450,000 annually, plus a $50,000 signing bonus, to care for just 400 patients (a typical full-time panel is more than 1,200). The catch? This role was at a boutique clinic, operated by “one of Canada’s most recognized brands” and has clinics in B.C., Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland. The recruiter told me that the clinic offers a combination of “insured” services –regular family doctor visits covered by the public system – and “uninsured” services paid for by the patient via extra fees. These uninsured services, I was told, included “comprehensive health assessments” that focus on “prevention and wellness.”

![A person in Louisiana is hospitalized with H5N1 bird flu after having contact with sick and dying birds suspected of carrying the virus.
Although the person has been hospitalized, their condition was not immediately reported. It's also unclear what kind of birds the person had contact with [wild, backyard or commercial birds]. Ars has reached out to Louisiana's health department and will update this piece with any additional information.
To date, at least 845 herds across 16 states have contracted the virus since March, including 630 in California, which detected its first dairy infections in late August.
At least 60 people in the US have been infected amid the viral spread this year. But the new case in Louisiana stands out. To date, nearly all of the human cases have been among poultry and dairy workers [unlike the new case in Louisiana] and almost all have been mild [also unlike the new case]. Most of the cases have involved conjunctivitis [pink eye] and/or mild respiratory and flu-like symptoms.
