Styrofoam seems to be getting MORE popular. I heard land and sea animals think it's food; and eat it and die. I also heard it may contribute to breast cancer. I'm sure that there are a LOT more VERY bad things associated with it. (Like more and more floating on the ocean, and littering the land, and landfills). (And it being mostly not biodegradable). I personally have been trying to reduce my use of it, for a number of years, and educate people around me, as much as possible. If everyone who read this did the same, I believe we could make a LOT more of a dent in the problem. It has been an EXTREME burden on my heart for years, and I'm glad I can finally widely share it. (The burden). Thank you Care2, and thank YOU for your consideration. All the best, Stephie.
