Search the “great Pacific garbage patch”, there is one of those in each of the 7 oceans. We can do better.

We can do better with our facts. That myth was debunked years ago: https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/12/the_great_pacific_garbage_patch_myth.html

I got a coffee and muffin at a McDonald’s in Calgary, yesterday. I asked for butter and the server didn’t include a knife. I asked for a knife and it was WOODEN. No more plastics at McDick’s, nor almost any of the fast food majors in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada).

As these utensils are cheap and not well finished, it is possible, in fact LIKELY that someone will get a sliver that will fester. Expect lawsuits VERY SOON and if someone dies of an infection from a sliver off of a cheap, unfinished wooden fork, expect FedGouvCan to SUSPEND utensils at fast food joints!

All part of the plan to destroy businesses, both big and small, so True-dolt can get accolades from ‘der Führer und Reichskanzler’ Klaus Schwab and the ‘in’ people at the WEF. True-dolt’s ENORMOUS, narcissistic ego needs to be stroked at ALL times.

The ban includes checkout bags, cutlery, straws and food-service ware made from or containing plastics"

Switch to wooden chopsticks instead of plastic forks. Containers are already made of paper, wood or other materials that easily degrade. There is way too much waste from to-go services from fast-food outlets like McDonalds, and they need to be banned. People need to buy ingredients and cook at home. As for checkout bags, they are totally necessary and should be an exception from a ban.

I could start a bag store too.

I keep them in the trunk of my car and use them again and again when I go to the store.l

Sadly, that is the solution these brain-dead liberals are pushing; no more petroleum. That will put us back into medieval living. The Industrial Age will be wiped out. Along with billions of people that will die. That's the last straw for those who will survive.
