Ban single use plastics in supermarkets

Petition Details

Ban single use plastics and make all packaging recyclable

Additional Information

Plastic takes a very long time to degrade and when it degrades it turns micro plastics. It threatens wildlife by spreading toxins. Plastic waste ends up in the oceans threatening marine life. It also contributes to global warming. Plastic not only affects wildlife but also human health. Almost all plastics are made from chemicals that come from the production of planet-warming fuels (gas, oil and even coal).
