When It Comes to Packaging, Plastic Is the Environmental Material of Choice

This title may scream fake news to many of you. Yet it is true, and particularly relevant given the latest efforts to ban the plastic straw.

This is because strong, lightweight plastics help us do more with less material, providing environmental benefits throughout the lifecycle of plastic products and packaging. The study also concludes that the environmental costs of alternative materials can be lower per ton of production but are greater in aggregate due to the much larger quantities of material needed to fulfill the same purposes as plastics.
