My workplace does regular potluck lunches. Normally someone is responsible for bringing in plastic forks, spoons etc. Then they all get thrown out. With the help of my mom who found silverware at garage sales, I brought in silverware to keep at work. Little by little I'm moving #beyondplastic #plastic #pollutionsolution #environment
