“These products cause real environmental harm and we need to be able to prevent nearly 30,000 tons of expanded polystyrene waste from entering our landfills, streets, and waterways.”
Controversy aside for a minute, I have a VERY difficult time trying to visualize 30,000 tons of Styrofoam. That’s 60,000,000 pounds of the stuff. Given how Styrofoam weighs next to nothing, and it takes a very large volume to make a pound, if all 60,000,000 lbs of it were placed in one pile, there’d be a new mountain to be named in NYC.
Are you saying they may have inflated the #s to justify their position?! NEVER! lol
