Oh boy. Plastics? Well, we need less of those anyways (and maybe actually recycle them?). Pharmaceuticals? Yeah, that's a BIG problem! Maybe manufacture them in smaller factories locally. As for fertilizer? Let's see... #Urea, #nitrogen and #ammonia -- all can come from urine! And sulphur? Grow more garlic and onions rather than use oil production byproducts. WTF!

"Around 30% of fertilizer products go through the Strait of Hormuz. Quatar is the world’s biggest producer of urea, a key input to fertiliser manufacture. The region also produces around 35% of the urea and 23% of the ammonia, another feedstock for nitrogenous fertiliser, which is exported globally. Sulphur, another component of fertiliser manufacture, is also produced in the region as a by-product of oil production."
