Anyone, anywhere can make a difference, but combining that individual with other like-minded individuals can start a movement and cultural change.
Through this theme, we specifically look at the issue of single-use plastics. We highlight the key players in the single-use plastic ban that occurred in Honolulu in 2019, but took more than a decade of work leading up to its passing.
We look at why, at this point in time, legislation has become a necessary force to deal with human’s negative impact on the environment. Individuals, businesses, and government influence each other and when all three components work in sync to achieve similar goals we can change how society functions now and in the future.
