President Trump announced his intention to reverse the Biden administration's plan to phase out plastic straws, criticizing paper straws as ineffective. This move comes in the context of the Biden administration's larger initiative aimed at reducing single-use plastics across federal operations by 2035. The plan was celebrated as a pivotal step in the global effort to combat plastic pollution, given that plastic use has increased dramatically. While Trump's exact intentions regarding broader plastic policies remain unclear, the announcement underscores ongoing tensions regarding environmental strategies in the U.S.
President Trump stated he will sign an Executive Order against the Biden administration's plastic straw phase-out, declaring a return to plastic as they don't work.
The Biden administration's strategy to phase out single-use plastic represents a significant effort in addressing the growing plastic pollution crisis.
