Good,plastic is polluting the earth. we went "plastic" to save the Earth; more specifically, trees. problem was, politicians didn't understand that they really weren't saving trees....they were being cut and left on the ground. so now, we're banning plastic to save the earth...guess we'll start hauling pulp back in to the mills...

People need to start using biodegradeable renewables or the earth will soon be a large trash dump. I went to the Dominican R a couple years ago.The resorts were real nice,but the rest of the country looked like a garbage dump from all the plastic and garbage thrown around. I think it is a problem that should be addressed.There are places where plastic is needed but there are lots,like the single use stuff that could be replaced with renewables,and the rest recycled. We have turned into a throw away society for the sake of convenience and that is really sad. I got no problem getting rid of single use plastic articles.

Who are these environmentalists that espouse the use of plastic? We as trappers are the front line environmentalists and I have never liked seeing plastic trash in the bush. Often the trappers councils will go out a couple times a year to clean up trash left in the bush by human pigs.

Probably convinced to do so by those who stood to profit from the plastic sells. all I remember is the stated purpose of the "do-gooders" was to save the earth...sounds kinda familiar, doesn't it?

Filling the ocean full of garbage is far from saving the earth.

Filling the ocean full of garbage is far from saving the earth. not sure if you're being purposefully obtuse or not... but when we LISTENED to those who claimed to care about the environment, we ended up filling the oceans with plastic. why did we listen to them in the FIRST place?

maybe you weren't around in the seventies and eighties, but paper bags were EVERYWHERE, until the self-appointed environmentalists decided to "save the earth by saving a tree". Yep. And I would actually prefer to go back to brown paper bags. They degrade quickly and have the added benefit of being used to start a fire in the wood burner. Mike

Often the trappers councils will go out a couple times a year to clean up trash left in the bush by human pigs. Look no further than the people that are promoting "FAUX" fur, I'll assume that everyone on this thread is on top of things enough to know what that is made of. Maybe they want another "Island" floating around out at sea.

Your talking about antis-they are far from environmentalists. Like I stated,trappers are the front line conservationists/environmentalists.We are the eyes and ears in the bush and are the first to see when things go south. If you think antis are environmentalists your out to lunch.

Saving trees was the line they fed us, heck it's a renewable resource whacking mature trees is better for wildlife then leaving them up. If they could get by on less trees they would not hold the lands they have now I would think.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!
