I don't recall the exact figure it was significant, but the majority of human garbage is single use plastic (e.g., water bottles, plastic forks, etc.).

The problem isn't plastic. It's human nature. We're lazy and default to convenience over respect for Mother Nature.

Your post made me recall an old acquaintance of mine. Being environmentally conscious, he'd bring utensils with him everywhere so that if he ever ate out, he could use those instead of using plastic utensils.

Ha! Thanks!! That's on my TODO list. I'm hoping there's some sort of compact camping set I get buy and leave in the car, my back pocket, or strapped to my calf.

Heck! Even a reusable coffee stirrer would be a plus.
