      That’s what we used to do in Canada until Philippines called us out on our bullshit very publicly. Good for them frankly.

        The United States also did it with China, though China would subcontract with Southeast Asian countries who would subsequently dump the plastic in the ocean. Not sure what the tipping point was for the U.S.

        It’s almost like we should stop coming up with different ways to sell plastic.
