I've composted at home for a decade, and I still think banning single-use plastics in my city was the right call, despite the hiccups with alternatives. The compostable bags we get are flimsy, but the reduction in litter along our rivers is visible. Some argue that focusing on plastic ignores bigger carbon emitters like transportation, but local waste management is something we can actually control. I'm open to being wrong, but the environmental benefits here outweigh the inconvenience.
