I see beverage cups that had been tossed on the ground all over the place. They don't break down. You'll dig them up hundreds of years from now. Anything plastic is petroleum based meaning that some of that oil we import & pump out of the ground goes into making those things. It's also used in making ointments/creams/lotions etc. If you see "petrolatum" in the ingedients that is a petroleum based product. We should demand that those kinds of chemicals not be used.

A ban is not a bad idea. I’ve thought for a long time that somehow merchants ought to be a bit more responsible with regard to littering. Something like a deposit given for returning a foam/plastic cup from their business. And employees should be trained to be more responsible too. From time to time when I get a cold drink at DD the attendant will automatically put the plastic cup with the beverage in it into a second Styrofoam cup for insulation. That’s completely wasteful and unnecessary.

Nope, not at all. Responsible business' have taken it upon themselves to alleviate this despicable environmentally degrading, non-biodegradeable form of sheer casual watse. Catch up people, before we are all left behind....

I support a ban on foam cups and packaging.

Yes
