The White House Has a Plan to Slash Plastic Use in the U.S. | The government said it would phase out its purchases of single-use plastics, significant because it is biggest buyer of consumer goods
The government said it would phase out its purchases of single-use plastics, a significant step because it is the biggest buyer of consumer goods in the world.
And if Trump makes it back in he will mandate we bring back styrofoam for all single use packages, especially McDonalds, he wants his hamberders to stay warm.
Bring back waxed paper and cellophane! And don't forget to stop using plastic stickers on produce; I hate finding those suckers in the compost.
Also, while we're making progress, force every retailer that sells you batteries (and any products containing them) to take them back once they're dead. Or maybe have a battery disposal at every post office or something...
Those are great initiatves on their part, but there just aren't any of those stores near here. The closest Staples is probably 16 miles away and the nearest Home Depot is probaby 40-60 miles away... I appreciate the comment, I just hope more stores do that eventually.
