Plastic is everywhere. Over the past century, we’ve stuffed our landfills, lined the bottom of the ocean floor, and even managed to get microscopic particles floating through our blood and bodies. Topping things off, the industry is only growing. Plastics simply do not go away, and neither will this problem unless we do something about it. This week, Adam talks about ending plastic pollution with Judith Enck, a former EPA official under President Obama, and the author of the new book The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late.

![Adam Conover: Unmedicated [FULL STANDUP SPECIAL]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ayL0EA44Q1w/mqdefault.jpg "Adam Conover: Unmedicated [FULL STANDUP SPECIAL]
My first standup special, filmed in 2024 in Glendale, California, as part of Dropout Presents. Dropout was kind enough to give me the rights back after a year, so now I’m sharing it with all of you. I get into my childhood diagnosis with ADHD, why driving makes no sense, and how I cope with distraction in a world full of them. If you like this special, I’m on tour now come see me on the road! https://www.adamconover.net/tourdates/
