Rather than treating plastic pollution as a simple story of consumer waste, the book traces how oil and petrochemical companies helped create and expand demand for plastics, while framing the problem in ways that protect their own business model. Gardiner connects the growth of single-use plastics, the failures of recycling, and the environmental and health consequences of plastic production to broader corporate strategy and political influence. The book is written for readers who want to understand not only the visible waste crisis, but also the industrial system behind it. Its purpose is to reveal how plastic became Big Oil's financial fallback as demand for traditional fuels changes, and why that shift matters for climate, public health, and regulation.
