“Recycling campaigns and greenwashing help plastic producers hide these facts from consumers. They make it harder for buyers to make smart and eco-friendly choices and for lawmakers to create fair and informed regulations.”

Op 1 januari veranderen er weer wetten en regels voor ondernemers. Zo wordt het minimumloon naar boven bijgesteld, is plastic uit den boze in de horeca en moet er meer belasting worden betaald. Dit zijn de belangrijkste wijzigingen op een rijtje.

Doing the recycling this morning, knowing that plastic recycling sucks. We buy as few items in plastic bottles as we can (milk, mouthwash and cleaning supplies in bulk) but it's still way way too much. We're literally wrapping our food in toxic waste? Humans be like "it's fine".

The amount of plastic in a take away sushi package makes me want to weep.

The link below talks about Stone Straws banned biodegradable fossil fuel free straw that apparently feels like a plastic straw. Has anyone ever knowingly tried this straw? Does it hold up to the claim?

I am on the fence on the single use plastic ban - I like the concept but would prefer Canada take bigger action while I'd like to ensure the ban spurs innovation. I fear it may stymie it.

Please boost my question.

I just listened to the latest Cost of Living podcast with external Paul Haavardsrud about the banning of single use plastics. It talked about Stone Straw's biodegradable straw being included in the ban despite not being made with fossil fuels (I think it is Cellulose and Acetate).

Is this a government oversight or am I missing something?

Please boost I really want to learn more here.
