          Banning plastics in retail settings
          or banning plastics across a broad range of industry?

          Plastics is used inside cars, eg. dashboards, steering wheels, seats,
          wiring, etc.

          It's used in irrigation in agriculture, etc.

          It's going to be a crazy way to think of plastic-free world,
          and the "movement" starts with plastic bags or straws?

          The bags & straws argument is valid, in that it ends up in the oceans, etc.
          but banning plastic outright is going to be interesting in itself.

            @whyisave: No one is trying to ban plastics - the pro-plastic companies use that argument all the time - we are banning SINGLE USE plastics and particular plastics that cannot be recycled. Have a read of APCO's website and you will see what is actually happening/Or not happening.

              @the-fuzz: I was replying to the comment before mine, ie. "step by step it's going to be banned too",
              and that if it's a 'step by step' process, then what will be the objective due to the current pervasive nature of plastic ?

              Banning plastics that cannot be recycled is a good thing,
              and it will force innovation for circular economy.
              I agree with this already.

              I also get annoyed by wind farms or solar panels,
              which after their use, are simply buried in the ground,
              because they are not recycled (eg. no legislation, too tricky, etc.)

              So, much like "single use plastics", there are plenty of things on this planet which are 'single use',
              but it's not brought to our attention.

              Thanks for pointing out APCO.
              I just visited & read : https://apco.org.au/

          They could bring a new law into tomorrow.
          The difference is the supermarkets pay millions in donations to the big political parties so get their way.

          The straw ban actually hurts smaller operators disproprtionally more than the big fast food outlets. big fast food can absorb the costs easily.

          Just another way to transfer more wealth away from small owner operators and to the corporations.

            Funny thing is, when I go to a regular cafe they have no straws, but got to any store with an 'ethnic' background and they still have them because they aren't buying into the BS

            Just another way to transfer more wealth away from small owner operators and to the corporations.

            Yep, which is what the gov is mostly used for on all sides. Big business or special interest lobby gov in the name of <insert_social_justice_cause_here> to make the landscape more favourable to themselves. This is why the best form of government is one that has the least amount of influence in your life.

        You know that though, those are actually one of the better usage of plastic bags.

        All other alternatives have other issues, like either it's a carbon emission issue, can't actually hold wet food or can't wistand the delivery. Nuts comes to mind, so does cherries.

        So thin plastic wrapping is still one of the better materials for pre-packaged stuff.

        There's probably something to said about the packet of granny smiths for 4 bucks though.

          coffee cups and plastic drink bottles are possible a bigger creator of single use plastics but "might cost jobs" so not as easy a target as coffee and bottled water have industry bodies that loby government ….. not sure "single use drinking straw association" does much lobbying ….

          you buy an ice coffee like this https://i.imgur.com/nMqlYTw.png from store.

          So you to drink coffee, and ice cream later.

          If you use no staw then you get ice cream spilled over, or make a mess otherwise.
          (sure you can buy a spoon to eat ice cream first them drink coffee) but what if there's big frozen ice in drink ? do you want a cold burn in mouth ? or just drink you beverage ?

          • snoopydoop on 22/03/2023 - 12:14

            @USER DC: Yeah, I guess so, I never really eat that sort of thing. Seems like a relatively rare situation anyway. If I were making this at home myself I'd probably put a much smaller amount of icecream on top or a wider cup, which is the situation you'd need a straw. And honestly at home, a metal straw would be preferable anyway right, particuarly from a bargain point of view? You can ensure it's cleaned properly etc.

            Tbh I'd probably want my icecream separately, it's weird to me dumping so much on top like that. More used to a thickshake type of thing where it's actually blended in.

            Anyway, at a cafe I'd be fine with a paper straw just to get it to go down a bit, and then I think I'd have no problems drinking it normally by the time the straw is soggy.

            Don't feel you need 1500 plastic straws for this very specific type of food/drink though, at least for personal use.

When I first started I would occasionally forget but then I decided if I forget I just forgo that coffee and have one at home or work, depending on the day.

            -Value (according to camels, this is the regular price)

            -Value (if buying units of 1k+ units for personal use, reusable straws are much more economical, plus environmentally friendly)

        getting these from china or other international places could have worse consequences, (like if customs dont like it they can make recipient require permits for getting international parcels) or something like that

        Or at least get on the watch list.
        like how Chad is right now (from the ColdOnes)

          You realise these ones on Amazon are probably coming from China too, right? "Sold by shopeeflagship"

            @MiscOzB: but you wont be responsible for the international shipping bit, (you aint importing from china, you are buying from within australia)
            nor you have to wait 2 months for parcel from china, instead you get in 2 days at max with amazon
