Continuing To Use Linear/One Time Use ('Film') Plastic Bags Five Days A Week Instead of Reusable/Circular Ones

I just wrote the following brief note to the Coastline Elderly Services, Inc. chief executive officer, Mr. Justin Lees ....... '09/21/22 Mr. Lees, Please review the following short clip .... 'SolvingPlastic Episode 4 | The Foodware Solution That Every Restaurant Needs ....... https://youtu.be/0JzPwKo'. It is so very important that we address/solve the above together. Thanks, Mr. Lees. Take good care. Stay safe.' My immediate family members, currently clients of Coastline Elderly Services, Inc., receives meals on wheels from this particular agency five days a week always at/around noon. I continue to sort all the packaging/products, that my immediate family members just put all in one bin, at the conclusion of every day seven days a week. The delivery driver has currently brought, alas, two 'film' plastic bags, sometimes, even three, ugh. Every single of these 'film' plastic bags are all currently in one large cardboard box, and will be recycled properly. The styrofoam cups/sandwich containers are also all together in one place (a small cupboard). The styrofoam packaging/products either could be brought to Insulation Technology, Inc. in Bridgewater, Massachusetts, mailed there, or recycled by TerraCycle, Inc. The linear/one time use double layered trays are all stacked high together in three piles, and will be eventually recycled by TerraCycle, Inc. (The 'film' plastic layer covering for these particular trays are very concerning because they can really break/rip apart.) The double layered soup containers will also be recycled by TerraCycle, Inc. The HOOD milk cartons will either have to be sent by mail to Emmet County Recycling in Harbor Springs, Michigan or sent to TerraCycle, Inc. I would be absolutely delighted to help Coastline Elderly Services, Inc. fundraise for reusable containers, I would just have to know how many clients Coastline Elderly Services has and what are its current needs. There are ample places for the reusables to be sterilized/washed/cleaned/rinsed/dried in a 100% commercial kitchen. I have written to my immediate family members' senators about the aforementioned, and am still currently communicating with these particular community leaders. OZZI [https://www.planetozzi.com] as well as the Meals on Wheels store would be the ideal companies to consider for the reusables that will definitely make a major 1005 positive difference for both Coastline Elderly Services, Inc. and all the clients.

Again, the chief executive officer of Coastline Elderly Services, Inc. 863 Belleville Ave. New Bedford, Massachusetts 02745, Phone Number: (508) 999-6400, & URL Address: https://coastlinenb.org, is Mr. Justin Lees, MPA. Thanks so very much, most sincerely. Submitted By: A Very Caring, Concerned Citizen of Planet Earth
