Re: Banning plastic & styrofoam
I wasn't being critical at all. I was expressing surprise . My post made my position clear & that has been my position for decades. I am not sure why the content has been somewhat misunderstood by other posters.
Want less. Preserve more. Be mindful.
The move away from convenience and throwaway is a good starter in shifting mindset for many & lets face it convenience and throwaway is relatively new .
Small beginnings may yet help the one planet we have. If someone/anyone starts to think of alternatives to ubiquitous plastic bags and straws. Thinks about balloons before festooning everywhere. If people look with their eyes at what happens with a non-biodegradable bag over a compostable resusable bag , then that is a win.
