Finally! Now it is America’s turn.
Europe is proposing a ban on single-use plastic items such as utensils, straws, and plates in a bid to clean up the oceans

As long as Murka is ruled by the oil companies, it's going to be a fight I am in full support of.
I'm taking more responsibilty myself and have been working on reducing my overall foot print the last couple years. Europe appears to be leading the way on trying to help prolong the Earth.
In fact I recently stopped using straws after hearing about how Sir David Attenborough's work on the "Blue Planet II" television series.
I hope everyone can do these small things to help out.
We use only paper products and recycle all plastic.
Baby steps, but the world's still moving, just very, very slowly.
If they move any slower the ocean willbe replaced with plastic.
@Marine I think they'll use it as a ploy to 'walk on water.'
