Did you miss our #FPchat Twitter chat with green chemist Martin Mulvihill (@MJMulvihill)? He answered all our questions about food packaging & single-use plastic, but don’t worry, we gathered his answers for you here: https://t.co/FyYGL5ObHL #foodpackaging
@foodprintorg @MJMulvihill @ktotheyeung I also think I’m bringing my own reusable cutlery to work so I never have to say Yes to disposable-but getting government to get on this faster is IMHO going to be necessary - how can we hold them accountable? #FPchat
That’s all for #FPChat, everyone! Thanks for taking the time to join in. 👋Make sure to keep connected with our guest @MJMulvihill! Give him a follow and keep in touch. And to learn more about #foodpackaging, check out our recently released report: https://t.co/Yy8YYx6c5s
@MJMulvihill @foodprintorg Thanks. More transparency on the LCA of packaging seems necessary so that consumers know the impacts and companies can be held accountable. #FPchat
@MJMulvihill Q10: Use less plastic! Cut back on plastic in the kitchen, in shopping & when eating out. Take our pledge to say #NoSingleUsePlastic and we’ll send you a few emails with tips and resources for how to do it. https://t.co/PcBfaq6HmN #FPchat
@ktotheyeung Good question, especially during the holidays! @MJMulvihill any suggestions for specific brands or options for entertaining? #FPchat
@natashapaulmeno These are all great tips, thank you for sharing! #FPchat
Q10: What’s the one most important change I could make for my health when it comes to food packaging? #FPchat
Make simple swaps! Instead of a plastic bag, use a reusable tote. Instead of that paper coffee cup, bring your own reusable mug. Take our pledge to say #NoSingleUsePlastic & start reducing your food packaging today. https://t.co/PcBfaq6HmN #FPchat
@foodprintorg Not packaging related but what do you do if you don't have enough forks/plates etc for all holiday party guests? Is there a good env-friendly disposable option? Don't really want to buy new stuff and never use/have to throw away in future either. #FPchat
@MJMulvihill @foodprintorg It seems like a lot of compostable packaging I see can only be processed with an anaerobic digester, and the farmer's market I take my compost to won't accept it. Even if I'm throwing things like this away in the normal trash, will they still eventually degrade? #FPchat
@MJMulvihill @foodprintorg What do you mean by "better functioning" compostables? making it easier for consumers to understand where to put compostable items to ensure they'll get composted & not end up in landfill? Or making it so it matters less if they end up in the right place? #FPchat
@natashapaulmeno Good question @natashapaulmeno! We talked about forever chemicals & PFAS in Q4. Pop in those comments & check out @MJMulvihill's response. #FPchat
A6: Act & speak up! Bring your own bag & ask your grocery store for bulk shopping options. Bring your own mug & ask your coffee shop for less #singleuseplastic. Bring your own containers & ask your favorite takeout place to stop using Styrofoam. #FPchat.
Q8: What’s something you wish more consumers knew about? #FPchat
Q7: What’s the most promising innovation you’ve seen in food packaging? #FPchat
@foodprintorg Have any companies conducted life cycle analyses of their packaging, similar to what this recent CIEL report did? #FPchat

@natashapaulmeno @foodprintorg It does seem like they made those changes bc they heard from consumers that we don't like all the unnecessary plastic. So at the very least, they're listening, which I like. Skepticism is good tho : ) #FPchat
