In the meantime, I don't use plastic straws and cup covers at places like Panda that hand out only paper cups and leave these other choices to their patrons. It's also often possible to decline these at restaurants that provide them at the counter. I really don't miss these doodads which don't seem to enhance my fast-food dining much and probably pile up in our landfills at a prodigious rate. Not sure others will find this to be a sanitary option, but I also wipe and re-use my plastic fork which I store in my glove box and try to remember to bring with me when I go back to Panda. I suppose these procedures are just a matter of altering old routines?
On a related subject, has anyone heard what the future plans are for the ocean trash-gathering boom now floating in Hilo harbor might be? Hope they can resolve the issues they were having with its deployment/operation. I wish them luck in this worthy effort to address the ocean-borne waste.
