We'd all be fine if it weren't for plastic. However, like someone said, it can be mined again if we run out but the extraction process of removing the plastic from everything mined up from the dumps would probably cost a lot in the long run and cause tons of polution in the long run as well. Either way, were fucked.
Plastic has only been around for about 100 years now and we don't really know the long term effects of exposure to it either. It is afterall petroleum. Whos to say that it won;t destroy the soil 100 years from now when it starts to break down?
