A good start would be stores and restaurants not providing plastic cutlery unless the customer requests it. Also discount the price of a cup of coffee by a bit if someone brings their own cup, even if its 10 cents.

Just remember, this lunacy intensified when environmentalists, politicians, and the media cited a project on straw usage written by, wait for it, a nine-year-old Milo Cress. Kudos for the effort. To be fair, a few years later, the 16-year-old poster child, Greta, screaming in the UN, stole all his thunder.

This is all just busy work to placate environmentalists for votes.

“What we are setting in place is a gradual, phased programme, one that ensures businesses and consumers have time to adjust, the government has time to inform, and the country has time to shift behavior responsibly.”

Dear God, how long does it take? This step is already overdue by 4 years and at this rate nothing will ever be done on this matter.

Time to appeal to the good sense of the individual… actually the only real way to get things done.

“It empowers the Government to add items to a Schedule only after consultation, only after listening to stakeholders …”

Uh, huh.

The roads are a mess. Education is not educating. Lord help you if you need emergency care. If you are retired health insurance costs double what your rent is.A much needed ashpalt plant is three years late. Bridge replacement is over fifteen years late. No real improvement in tourism. Hotels closed. Not enough housing. Seniors daycare two months late with work not even started. A Premier who spends more time who knows where around the world than he does on island.

I am sure others can add plenty more to the list of failures by this epically incompetent Government, and what are they talking about in the HOA?

SINGLE USE PLASTIC!!!! Good grief! This would be absolutely hilarious were it not so sad.

“an exhaustive and transparent consultation period” – translation, we already know what we are going to do, but legally have to go through the motions.

How many years has this been in play…….and you have done absolutely NOTHING. We are all paying people huge salaries to do absolutely nothing except for their own pockets.

“The Schedule of the Bill is intentionally empty today, and that is by design.”

Vote out these self serving egomaniacs.

Why not focus on paving the roads.
