Sounds like something laws should fix
Exactly.. We need heavy focus on packaging.. plastic bags are barely a problem. I don't care if my food packaging is flashy.. I shouldn't be in the hook if this stuff doesn't decompose naturally. Meat is the most agriegious example why do we use heavy styrene?
Every tiny change they try gets met with huge backlash, people still rage about plastic straws. It's got to be a cultural change too.
