The Franklin Township Environmental Commission asks patrons and restaurant owners alike to join in on “Skip the Stuff,” a movement whose goal is to end unnecessary usage of plastic utensils and single serving condiment packages handed out in restaurants by making these items available only as necessary.
If you’re like me, then there is a drawer somewhere in your home with loose and prewrapped plasticware from past take-out meals, and, similarly, in your fridge is a handful of condiment packages given to you in excess. Now, picture every home in Franklin Township having a similar collection. That’s a lot of waste! “Skip the Stuff” aims to prevent this waste from ever existing. In the words of Clean Water Action, we want to “stop trash before it starts.”
