Dear @ApplePan,
I ❤️ your 🍎 pie so much I went to get a piece to go and enjoy at home. The zero-use plastic utensils w salt & pepper wrapped in plastic are unnecessary, wasteful + they cost YOU 💰 too!
Please #skipthestuff! You can start following @LACity’s opt-in ordinance now!

[#BreakFreeFromPlastic @brkfreeplastic]

#WeChooseReuse because single-use plastic is harming frontline communities and reinforcing social injustices around the world! Let's make some noise for reuse and a circular economy!

The last thing we need is to confuse restaurants, customers, and delivery companies with different policies in LA City and LA County!

We support #SkipTheStuff OPT-IN.

Our latest animated short, #StoryofPlastic, pulls back the curtain on the plastic pollution headlines, revealing the true causes and consequences of the global waste crisis. Watch now to learn more about how we can #breakfreefromplastic. ����

[#BreakFreeFromPlastic @brkfreeplastic]

There is a rush to find and fund bioplastics, but bioplastics will perpetuate the world's problematic throwaway culture, and there aren't enough studies backing its safety.

If we want to #breakfreefromplastic, we should start from the source!

Happy Earth Month! Take action by signing and sharing the #SkipTheStuff petition. This campaign reduces unnecessary waste and saves restaurants money by requiring takeout and delivery "extras" like single-use utensils to be provided only "upon request." https://t.co/PzvxWzuyV7
