Ban the usage of styrofoam in Isla Vista

The Issue

The negative impacts of styrofoam greatly affects our community and raises not only health risks but also factors detrimental to the environment. Since styrofoam is non biodegradable, a large amount ends up in the ocean and is harmful to sea life since many animals mistaken it as food. We need to ban the usage of styrofoam cups/containers and replace them with biodegradable or environmentally friendly materials.
