Tell Joe Biden that he can take my plastic KFC spork from my cold dead hands!
Fortunately, the nanny state hasn't made it to the consumer level on this move, yet. But the Biden Administration is all in on saving the planet by taking the necessary drastic measures to keep the world cool.
They're banning plastic cutlery in the federal government.
President Biden announced the order taking aim at the ‘climate crisis' in July which would require an ‘all-hands-on-deck response' from every federal agency ...
As part of this plan, the White House announced a phase out of single-use plastics, which includes ‘plastic and polystyrene food and beverage containers, bottles, straws, cups, cutlery and disposable plastic bags.'
No more single-use paper and styrofoam plates. No solo cups, no dixie cups, no sporks. If you work for the feds you're going to have to say goodbye to easy cleanup and maybe hire one more dishwasher so that you don't run out of silverware.
‘[T]he Biden-Harris Administration is announcing a new goal to phase out federal procurement of single-use plastics from food service operations, events, and packaging by 2027, and from all federal operations by 2035,' the White House said. ‘Meeting the new goal… will further agencies' obligations under the [previous] Executive Order.'
Biden's prior executive order aimed to reduce the sale of single-use plastic products on public lands.
Me trying to work out how banning plastic forks will save the world while China is building two new coal plants a day:
This ban only affects the feds and their employees for now, but we all know that the real reason for this ban is to set a standard for how we all have to live our lives.
They can't help but try to make you feel guilty for using disposable bowls, as if that's what's making summer hot.
