This is a great video, love this one, thanks for sharing!

If everyone has another 20 minutes, John Oliver delves into the topic some more.

We should still try to recycle as member of our community (and the world populace) but it's the corporations that need to be held accountable and forced to take action. Because as it stands now they are lobbying hard to shift the blame to consumers and make it difficult to ban single use products, while also avoiding packaging innovations and laws that promote such change - 'cause, you know...profits.
