3. Serve Food with Plastic-Free Dinnerware

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT

The plastic-free policy movement has gone beyond straws and grown to encompass other food service ware. In 2020, the Canadian government announced that by the end of 2021, they would be banning a multitude of single-use plastic items, including cutlery and difficult to recycle takeout containers. They have followed in the European Union’s footsteps, who in 2019 passed a ban on single-use plastic cutlery, straws and plates that will also be enacted in 2021. Your event might be impacted by these policies in the near future, so it is important to take steps now. Serving food to hungry sailors can indeed be achieved by methods that eliminate the need for single-use plastics.
