You won’t see the cowards protesting China’s pollution re: plastic. Never.
The idea of return/deposit food containers is an idea whose time has come.
Again.
I would think they should call single-use plastic a good thing. Lots of it is buried and its carbon is sequestered just about forever. Another chunk of carbon that will not unite with some oxygen molecules to produce CO2, the killer of life and planets and solar systems. Don't look so glum. Rejoice! Then have a drink from your single-use cups and bottles!
I hope the clothes they are wearing, the signs, the doona and the boat are all made of natural, degradable fibre. It isn't just the drink containers that are plastic, it's everything they wear, carry it in and all their modern technology that is petroleum based.
Instead of banning plastic coffee cups and water bottles, their time would be better spent trying to find a way to safely and profitably dispose of it all. Turn it back into re-usable oil, maybe.
