I believe that there should be regulations on how much biodegradable but this seems a little too strict
All single use paper, plastic products should be phased out through regulations and replaced by general reusable returnable utensils and dishes.
Disposable products are important for people in low income situations and the disabled. People who can afford and are able to use recyclable materials should, however a ban on production would not be beneficial to individuals in the public.
It shouldn't be banned but make a tax on it and promote recycling
@8XMZZWK3yrs3Y
Yes, and give grants to companies to make better biodegradable stuff.
Ban all disposable products completely and institute a circular economy.

If was not made by a comrad
@8R396JS4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if we can provide options that work for diabled people who rely on single use things.
Yes, and ban all disposable products that are not made of at least 75% of biodegradable material, unless they can be recycled and therefore incentivize recycling rather than just punishing those who don't.
@8PLR5BX4yrs4Y
yes and no, they are useful but they are harming the environment
Yes, but an exception for a disabled people who requires it for disability needs and hospitals.
no because it does nothing to help, these new paper staws and cutlery are packaged in PLASTIC
