        I'm disabled and can't wash dishes. So I'm dependent on single-use cutlery and dishes.

        Your situation is a reason for us all to reduce our optional plastic waste. Many plastics are indeed necessary (e.g., medicine). I think the goal is: reduce waste wherever we can & choose to “save” plastic for those who truly need it, accommodating accordingly. Best wishes.

        The plastic dishes, knifes and forks should be replaced by materials which can be rooten in some time to my understanding. The main problem is the plastic in nature and not in trash cans.

        @McDonalds had an opportunity to take the lead on this issue last week but their shareholders voted to turn their backs on the environment and they will be remembered for that

        Yes, rolling over to the whims of the corporations who are getting rich off polluting is the absolute worst way to deal with this!

        I wouldn't spend too much time considering. Quite the mess. Say, can biodegradable hemp be of any help?
