  • #353 6,000 Studies vs. Billionaire Lies: The Truth About Plastics with Dr. Chris De Armitt
    2026/04/17
    What if the "eco-friendly" choice you're making is actually 200x worse for the environment? Dr. Chris De Armitt—materials scientist, Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and author of The Plastics Paradox—joins us after reviewing over 6,000 peer-reviewed studies. His mission? Replace environmental mythology with actual science. In this no-holds-barred conversation, Chris reveals why plastic bags are the greenest option, why your reusable cotton tote is an environmental disaster, and why billionaires like Michael Bloomberg and Bill Gates are funding studies that say the exact opposite of the scientific consensus. Whether you're a speaker who needs to fact-check your material or someone tired of being guilt-tripped at the grocery store, this episode will change how you think about "sustainability." Guest: Dr. Chris De Armitt All Episodes: https://www.awakeningpodcast.org Roy / Brain Gym & Virtual Assistants: https://roycoughlan.com/ Bio of Dr. Chris De Armitt Dr. Chris De Armitt (PhD, FRSC, FIMMM, CChem) is one of the world's leading independent experts on plastics, microplastics, and the environment.

After reviewing over 6,000 peer-reviewed studies, he authored The Plastics Paradox and Shattering the Plastics Illusion, both available for free.
