Gov’t acts on plastic pollution problem EDITORIAL 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetThe Philippine government is moving to take official action on the worldwide problem of plastic pollution. There are already two bills banning single-use plastics in the Senate filed by Senators Francis Pangilinan and Cynthia Villar. In the House, Rep. Elpidio Barzaga Jr. has filed a bill banning single-use plastics in all tourist sites and destinations. Hopefully, the whole world will similarly respond to the problem and ban the use of non-degradable plastics, while the world’s scientists continue research on plastics that will not cause the problem of pollution that is facing us today.
