RE:RE:There must be...You are right. There is NO problem with plastic in Canada. People simply don't throw utensils into the ocean. I do realize that in Africa and South America, throwing garbage is a common occurence.
Plastic is hygienic and practical. There is NO reason to banning straws, cups, plates, etc. In the age of viruses, I would not trust food courts to have clean metal utensils. I don't want to pay a high price for the alternative 'green' products.
We are being taken for a UN/WEF ride. At our expense of course, as the 'green' stuff always costs more.
