blog.theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com/germany-bans-single-use-plastics "Plastic straws, food containers, silverware, and much more will soon be a thing of the past in Germany. The German Cabinet announced a ban on all single-use plastics which will go into effect on July 3, 2021. Plastic pollution is a global problem that cannot be ignored. Every year, 100,000 marine mammals and turtles and 1 million sea birds are killed by plastic pollution that has made its way into the ocean. The animals either mistake one of the billion pieces of trash for food or become entangled in it...." My notes: More of the article & pics are on the site. Now, we just have to have others follow suit.
