Plastic Planet (2009)

Werner Boote: Self

Quotes 

• Fred vom Saal : I would say that at this time we cannot state that there is any safe plastic.

  Werner Boote : We're still alive.

  Fred vom Saal : That's a very good point. These chemicals do not kill you. They just harm your quality of life. They give you asthma. They lead to obesity. They lead to brain disorders.

  Werner Boote : On the other hand, all those materials help me to stay alive as well. When I'm going to the hospital, everything is made out of plastic.

  Fred vom Saal : Yes. On your way to the hospital for chemotherapy and radiation therapy for the cancer caused by these chemicals, you ask yourself, "Have they really improved the quality of the life I am living?" That's the question.
