Now this is a topic we all need to embrace, it's not hard to understand that the choices we make now will have a massive impact on future generations - not just our own children but their children and going on...

Plastic waste is the worst, it will not degrade and affects so many delicate ecosystems throughout the world - just recycling is not solving the issue - changing our way of life from using plastics that will not degrade has to be a life change from all. Packaging, in any form has to move toward being biodegradable and compostable - just being recyclable does not cut it - many recyclable items need special processing that it never sees - and so just ends up in land fill anyway.

Replacing plastics with PLA - polylactic acid which has similar properties but will Biodegrade has to be a priority, in my own business we now supply a wide range of disposable cups for hot and cold drinks that are PLA based and have the same qualities as traditional disposables but will still naturally break down in the environment.

We have a choice to right now to do something for our children, it might not make a difference in our life time - but if your care for the special people in your own lives the change needs to happen now so the benefit will live on long after we do.
