Modern Alchemy: Making β€œPlastics” from Paper
I got the idea from an anime called β€œDr. Stone” in which civilization crashed and science was lost, then someone from the past reintroduces it to the people of the small fishing village that has never heard of soap, wheat, electricity, glass, paper, steam power, gasoline, explosives, or folding metal (though they had iron weapons). In episode 29, he β€œglues” 5 pieces of paper together to make a shield with the strength of carbon fiber, then they paper mache a car body for a steam powered tank. It took me a while to find, but I think this article is talking about the method they used.

That might require coating it in toxic materials. Also wouldn’t the skies generally be blue to begin with?

If you cause enough pollution to change the way your atmosphere looks like, your civ will most likely die from horrible gasses in the air.

Would things like starfish external stomachs still count as mouths or not?

In the context of speaking I’d say all you need is a lack of connection between your respiratory system and mouth, but honestly I dunno exactly what Poodelicus meant.
