If climate change were deemed to be caused by the use of pharmaceuticals, not by combustion of fossil fuels, would our leaders seek to ban prescription drugs by 2050?

Don replaces fossil fuels with pharmaceuticals in his argument …but Interesting crossover here … many drugs are derived from petroleum products & all are dependent on fossil fuels to manufacture … and almost all hospital / health equipment is as well. World wide we must use trillions of safe disposal plastic syringes & petroleum based IV bags to administer life saving medications every single day. Not to mention almost all other hospital equipment - surgical, ventilators/oxygen, IV pumps/tubing, beds, masks, gowns, gloves, huge quantities of plastic disposal containers, etc - the list of hospital/health care products derived from & produced via petroleum products is endless.
