114082. A food facility where food may
be consumed on the premises shall not provide single-use plastic straws
to consumers unless requested by the consumer. For purposes of this
section, a food facility shall not include the facilities listed in
subdivision (b) of Section 113789.
“a person who violates any provision of the code to
be guilty of a misdemeanor with each offense punishable by a fine of
not less than $25 or more than $1,000, or by imprisonment in the county
jail for a term not exceeding 6 months, or by both.”
NOT THE ONION
This makes me want to waste so many plastic straws. From now on I’m asking for three, two to use and one to just throw out.
This is an environmental measure, you absolute dumbasses.
Single use plastic straws are devastating to the environment. They break into tiny pieces and get washed out into the ocean into our ever-growing Great Pacific Garbage Patch, or even worse, get eaten by birds or lodged into the throats and nostrils of dolphins and sea turtles.
Frankly, it’s high fucking time we took more strict measures to reduce our environmental impact.
Let me run this by you one more time.
A ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR FINE and/or SIX MONTHS IN JAIL for ONE SINGLE UNREQUESTED STRAW.
As @opinionatedvegan demonstrates, the line separating a vegan/vegetarian from a tyrant is sub-atomically thin.
As I have long argued with @i-hate-vegans, the philosophical paradigm that elevates the consumption of beast-flesh to the same level of moral atrocity as murder or vandalism is doomed to induce tyranny.
Yes @thecybersmith, the vandalism of literal inanimate objects is clearly more important and detestable than harm to someone who actually suffers as a result.
The only reason that environmentalism exists is because sentient individuals suffer as a result of a poor climate, nobody would care about storms devastating the face of jupiter because there’s no life to be harmed up there.
The earth is a rock, its the inhabitants that I’m concerned about.
