Petition: Require Compostable Material for Single-Use Food Packaging

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just made an incredible – and incredibly important – announcement. Companies in the U.S. are going to stop creating and using food packaging products that are laden with “forever chemicals” (or “PFAS”).

This is great news for all consumers. Going one step further would be even better: all such products should be explicitly compostable and sustainable.
