The Plastic Spherosphere and Plastic Pollution

i was very much envisioning that our conversation would begin by discussing the pervasiveness of plastic and plastic pollution. But as i read your work, i became really intrigued by your framing of plastic as kin in response to the dominant discourse plastic. I'm hoping you can share what the plasto sphere is, and why plastic can no longer solely be understood as an inanimate object. Ask a lot of questions.
