Yes, as long as there is a proper replacement available before implementing the ban (straws were banned before a proper alternative has been created, paper straws are useless)
@9TQFC7D7mos7MO
In a way, yes. However disposable materials should be switched over to biodegradable materials entirely.
@9LBWT4X1yr1Y
i think that tis would be okay if the replacement products are still good quality and reasonably priced.
Further production should be banned and they should think of more bio friendly ways so the produced product can be sold however the incoming new product should become eco friendly
@9QQMCYT10mos10MO
Yes, but increase investment towards better options rather than paper things, as it can be inconvenient for many
@96LZ6W7New Democratic2yrs2Y
No, they should not be banned but taxed extra for producing them
@93RV2L93yrs3Y
People can be encouraged to use less, but not banned.
@8WWTPCP3yrs3Y
In some areas where it is used to commonly and is causing the most damage.
@8VWX4FH4yrs4Y
We should slowly get to that banning it all at once would be very difficult
@8VP6QRX4yrs4Y
Yes, anything that is less than 100% biodegradable should be banned.
@8TJCPQL4yrs4Y
yes, ban all products that are not at least 50% biodegradable AND STUPID PAPER STRAW
@8TJ5KQ24yrs4Y
They should not be sold as often but decrease the price of biodegradable products
Banned for everyone besides people living with a disability because they need disposable products
@8TJ3RH7New Democratic4yrs4Y
Not all of them since it might cause problems if all of them are banned.
@8TFVW57New Democratic4yrs4Y
Yes, but provide incentives to companies to maximize biodegradable materials in all single use products.
@8SRRPTJ4yrs4Y
Yes, only if an affordable biodegradable option is readily available for everyone.
i think yes and no because i dont think we will ever be ablw to fully get rid of it
@8FMNRVR5yrs5Y
@9CMHHXG2yrs2Y
Only if the item is used a lot and harms the environment. The ban should be slow.
@9CMF2SS2yrs2Y
No, But make they much less common
Yes, and increase consumer incentives for recycling and increase tax incentives for companies that make biodegradable products
@99CJGGJNew Democratic2yrs2Y
I don’t believe we need to ban plastic I believe we need to spend money on finding ways to properly recycle and use the plastic we throw away, there are many countries that have done it, why can’t Canada
@8TJ4YV94yrs4Y
Yes, for people above a certain salary, as those who cannot pay for the more expensive materials shouldn't have to
