Plastic Plates and Picnic Ware
Some things are designed to be thrown away. Usually, cutting down on disposable products is the best environmental choice, but if you want to use disposable plates and cutlery, you can choose to buy renewable-based products.
These can be made of paper, recycled paper, or renewable polymers. Some of these will break down in compost heaps and don't need to be landfilled. In addition, they are manufactured from renewable materials and therefore do not use as many fossil fuels.
