About this Petition Petition Letter
Why This Is Important

While plastic takes thousand(s) of years to disintegrate, styrofoam never does.  It will break down into small pieces, but will always remain there, eventually leaving piles of the material on the planet's lands and waters.  An alternative material must be used!

Styrofoam Never Dissolves

Dear Representative

The world may end when we humans make too much styrofoam and plastics.  Styrofoam never breaks down, while plastics take 1 thousand+ years to disintegrate.  Do we want our lands and waters eventually filled with this material?  We must start using alternate resources.
