Well.. come to Europe.
But to be fair yeah, I think they banned most non biodegradable single use utensils.
Straws just turned out harder to replace compared to plates and forks. The plastic coated paper straws which are just as bad (if not worse) in most ways are just a perfect illustration why this policy wasn’t thought out that well.
- jeroenhd 3y agoWhich law targeted straws specifically? The 2019 directive on single-use plastics (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2019/904/oj https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2019/904/oj) targeted a wide variety of single-use plastics related to food consumption.
