Where are the creative types to upcycle the straws?



I'm 1750km from the nearest salt chuck, can you toss In my share?


Just toss it on the ground. If you have rain and rivers it will find its way there.

Hey BS companies are starting to react to Canada's support against plastics

133 lose jobs as Dixie Cup plant closes in Brampton



American factory staying open though do you think they are sending a message?


Dixie Cups used to come in paper containers.

Beer and whiskey glasses sure feel like plastic to me

Catalog Home Cups, Lids, & Straws Cold Cups & Lids Dixie® Clear Plastic Cups and Lids 5-20 oz.

If they were truly an all paper product it would be worse optically on the verge of a Canadian volunteer ban on plastic products in the country 166 jobs lost is a shame for Ont.

If it's designed properly ... none.


It is a third world product!!!!!!


That ought to say it all......but LIE-berals need to point hammered home!!!!


Some will recall the international ban on fluorcarbons for hair spray and refrigerant and such.......

banned to save the ozone layer and protect us from skin cancer.......


For 20 years the air got better.......but in recent years there has been a huge NEW release of fluorocarbons and this indicates that third world countries are using the banned chemicals for their own economy- because those chemicals ARE CHEAPER!!!!!

The best 3 for me was Grade 10.


I AM THINKING THOSE PLASTIC WORMS ARE EATING LIE-BERAL BRAINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


HOW ELSE TO EXPLAIN THEIR OBSESSION WITH THE WORMS!!!!!


AND WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE LIE-BERAL INSISTENCE THAT WE MUST RECYCLE PLASTIC SO WE WILL NOT NEED TO EXTRACT SO MUCH OIL FROM THE GROUND AND MAKE AN EVEN BIGGER ENVIRONMENTAL MESS?


i GUESS ITS NOW OKAY TO USE LOTS OF OIL FOR ONE TIME PACKAGING?


OR SHOULD WE ASSUME THAT THE PEOPLE WHO MADE GOBS OF GRAVY FROM THE NOW CANCELLED ONTARI-OWE



MOULDY GREEN ENERGY MESS NOW EXPECT TO MAKE NEW GRAVY GRABS BY SELLING GOVT THEIR SPECIAL BRAND



OF WORMS FOR EATING GARBAGE???????????
