        The biggest users of single use plastics and single use food containers are millennials. Those for whom we are to save the planet. 😳

        As an environmental lawyer I applaud an initiative to save our oceans. But we must protect the environment now to protect the planet for our grandchildren.

        And it’s now against the law to “say” anything negative about Mohamed as the Islamic people are superior. Go EU, betray freedom of speech and bow down.

        I think you are referring to a case in the ECHR upholding a pretty unique Austrian blasphemy law. Actually very little to do with the EU. ECHR has also upheld anti-religious speech so it’s far more complex than you make out.

        So back to the milkman delivering glass bottles with a horse drawn cart? Third world countries are dumping trash into the ocean. This will do nothing to help the problem

        Well diapers are not disposable dishes, I would say limit your kids diaper use for 2 years max. Hopefully there is an end date to diapers, plastic dishes/cups is endless use for some people.
