    Anyone curious about plastic waste should check out videos of those “trash islands” created from accumulated plastic waste etc. Reducing the global use of plastic is an urgent environmental issue.

    This would be a good idea, but it realistically depends on the economic state of the country.

    Yes, I think it is extremely to contain the plastic disposals and try to reduce it as much as possible.
