> We are the society that is banning straws while completely ignoring fishing nets. It's quite easy to drink a drink without a straw - quick easy win. Fishing without nets requires more thought and retooling. You do what you can do. Similar single use shopping bags clear were a scourge - near me before the ban they used to festoon trees. Shopping bags can easily be reused. Reusing bin bags is much more difficult. Here in the UK plastic in packaging is a high-profile issue - particularly food packaging.
