RE: News: Western Australia 'considering' Banning Straws

in #news6 years ago

I like the bottle return system. War on waste showed a German system that has the manufactures pay the 10cents. I think is time that we recognise that when a company choose to use plastic they need to pay a price for the environmental damage they cause. The same should apply to all business who use anything that damages our environment. Ie air pollution, plastics, chemicals,.
It's our societys environment and if a company wants to increase its profits at the expense of our environment then they need to pay us for it

Sort:  

100% totally well said. There are huge environmental externalities that are not being paid!
