I agree to ban all disposable products that are not made of at least 75% of biodegradable material but also fix our recycling programs and GET HONEST about what Canada REALLY IS RECYCLING!! Programs for residential sorting at the curbside, THEN fines to loose individuals who don't sort properly
@B2DQ5HF5 days5D
Yes, but I rather bring my own fork or spoon to restaurants that use these new cardboard kind of products. It irritates my skin.

They should either A. Phase them out within a decade or so, or B. Find a way to better decompose plastic

No, now I really know some people are allergic to other stuff but they can only use plastic stuff the government should not ban them.

While we should be aiming for more environmentally friendly products, we need to consider the structural integrity of certain products, specifically ones designed for people with disabilities like straws.
@9VZFZZ53mos3MO
Only one time use water bottles need to be banned since they are practically useless in a non-survival situation.
@9VTMR5J3mos3MO
they work better than recyclable products, but it is really bad for the environment, so you should do half half.
