With constant reminders about environmental concerns we like to know we’re doing our part by removing the disposable items from our shopping list. For most people who are planning a party or arranging a gathering the automatic response is usually to stock up on disposable plates and plastic eating utensils.
Doing our part is all we can do and choosing to use flatware is something we can definitely do. We all appreciate when we’re at a public fundraiser and the meal is served with flatware rather than plastic. Keep communicating how much we appreciate it because we don’t know how many others will begin doing their part.
