Haha, Funny, I live in the Falklands and plastic bags along with plastic straws have been banned. But you can walk along the coast line and most of the time, the pollution there is all plastic coming from the fishing industry... Yet, no one is saying nothing about that, since the economy is driven by the fishing industry...

Not long ago I had a few scientist friends working for an "NGO", and it was so crazy to see mugs and other swag from oil companies over at their HQ...

Oh, I thought that was already the case everywhere as I live in France and basically didn’t travel much over the last years.

The trend is probably too slow but it’s there: https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/plastic-bans-around...
