Sounds like something laws should fix

Exactly.. We need heavy focus on packaging.. plastic bags are barely a problem. I don't care if my food packaging is flashy.. I shouldn't be in the hook if this stuff doesn't decompose naturally. Meat is the most agriegious example why do we use heavy styrene?
