The Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS) has welcomed the tabling of legislation that will ban the use of plastic cutlery, drink stirrers and polystyrene food and beverage containers in the Australian Capital Territory. The laws would commence from July 2021 and will help to save ocean wildlife like turtles and seabirds from death by plastic. AMCS plastics spokesperson Shane Cucow said the new laws were vital but needed to go further and include single use plastic straws and other plastic plates and bowls. The ACT Government has said they intend to introduce bans on these items in 2022 with exemptions allowing access to people with disabilities or medical needs.
