Not only do the restaurants substain the gulls, now clean sterile food wrappers are being eliminated.
Cynthia Garfield, city councilwoman for Pacific Grove, said Wednesday that its version of a single-use plastics ban is being crafted in the city’s planning department and will come before the City Council this year.
P.G. has already instituted a voluntary effort for restaurants to stop serving plastic straws, but “we’re looking at a broader scope than just straws,” Garfield said. “We are ratcheting down the use of all single-use plastic.”
