Almost everyday I see a new commercials saying “No more plastic, we switched to paper [straws/bags/whatever]!” I understand that it’s good to not use plastic, but won’t this contribute to cutting down more trees and hurt our environment as well?

I turned organic waste into edible landscapes, [Here](https://imgur.com/a/zZHD1) is an image album of one of my projects.

I can not do anything with plastics, using a packaging that lasts for a thousands years for a single serving is kind of silly. If all our packaging was made from organic materials, we could literally be feeding our forests and ecosystems with it, zero waste.
