Canada sets sights on next plastic waste target: food packaging
The federal government is calling for input from grocers, food and beverage producers, provincial governments and the general population.
Good. This is the way.
6 0 ReplyThey should look at the ridiculous amounts of plastic used for cannabis packaging too. I can only assume it's some kind of government requirement, the plastic use is insane here compared to anything I've purchased in states where it's legal.

3 0 ReplyYeah, do that. But Canada should set its sights on eliminating shale oil production -- things that will ACTUALLY make a big difference.
1 0 ReplyIn case you haven't heard, they are ending subsidies for this kind of thing.
2 0 ReplyGlad to hear it. No reason to subsidize super profitable and world-destroying endeavors.
But eliminating subsidies isn't nearly good enough. After all, were not talking about ending subsidies to single use plastic containers.
