“Plastic consumption in New Jersey spiked by nearly three times following the state’s implementation of a strict ban on single-use plastic shopping bags, a study found.
“Following New Jersey’s ban of single-use bags, the shift from plastic film to alternative bags resulted in a nearly 3x increase in plastic consumption for bags,” Freedonia Custom Research (FCR), a business research division for MarketResearch.com, reported in a study published this month.
Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy said after signing legislation in 2020 that authorized the bag ban. “With today’s historic bill signing, we are addressing the problem of plastic pollution head-on with solutions that will help mitigate climate change and strengthen our environment for future generations.”

Note how plastic waste and climate change have been lumped together, when they are completely different problems with different and actually conflicting remedies. Cleaning up plastic mess requires energy which is precisely what measures to tackle the non-existent ‘climate crisis’ severely limit.
This false association betrays the actual motive. In the minds of these psychopaths, both problems can be tackled simultaneously by population reduction. They don’t care about the planet, but merely hate humanity.
