Also in April, another letter was addressed to Beaches n' Cream on behalf of students and faculty at Norway Public School, where one of Attard's children attends, urging the business to reconsider using plastic spoons again."We are beginning to practice refusing to use single-use plastics and making the best effort to divert trash from landfills.Businesses that are dependant on single-use plastics are contributing to many of our environmental problems.
