General Scheme of the Prohibition of Certain Products Containing Plastic Microbeads Bill 2018: Discussion
Mr. John Chave:
The interesting thing about the microbeads phase-out was there were natural alternatives such as kernels and cellular lotions. Given what my colleagues said about rising environmental awareness, I think that message is well taken, not only in our industry but also in many others. We need to think about alternatives and so forth.
