The End of Plastic Pollution
Regulate the amount of plastic used in restaurants, companies, and civilian life. The excessive use of plastic casings for food, plastic utensils, and plastic packaging should be banned from everyday consumer use.
Why is this important?
Everyone uses plastic, and that's the problem. Plastic consumption has drastically increased in the last decade, and its a worldwide problem to be able to find a dumping ground for it. This has resulted in our ecosystems being polluted by non recyclable plastics and species being on the endangered animals list. The effort to make a change starts now, or the effects of our consumer culture will be non reversible in preserving our Earth.
