Crafting a Sustainable World, One Post at a Time
Coronavirus Stresses the War on Plastic
Sustainability and reusable items have come into the spotlight of consumer trends in recent years, which has inspired the rise in the market of single-use plastic alternatives. Unfortunately, since the coronavirus outbreak the sustainability movement has regressed from its previous progress in the fight against single-use plastics.
The fear over the virus has been the biggest driver of this new pro-plastic movement which has reversed plastic bans in the U.S. and beyond. This blog will examine the renewed demand for plastics, the myth of plastic being considered “safer” and how the coronavirus will impact sustainability from innovative solutions to consumer mindsets.

This blog will look at how COVID-19 has impacted the environment, wildlife, the tourism industry and our habits as well as takeaways that we can apply to life after the coronavirus.
