Plastic bags are still widely used in different parts of the world, for example in United States, where children and adolescents have demonstrated over the last few years their fighting spirit towards the defense of the environment. It is impossible to forget the case of Seven Suzuki, who with his short and touching speech managed to silence the world at the United Nations Earth Summit, held in Rio De Janeiro in 1992, as well as the events of Tai'Kaiya Blaney, the XNUMX-year-old who is making American oil companies tremble.
It is now the turn of Abby Goldberg, who in the city of Grayslake, Illinois, is stubbornly demonstrating her support for a a ban on plastic bags. His commitment began with the realization of a school project aimed at abolishing the use of plastic bags single use in your city. Abby Goldberg began advocating for this cause when she understood how the use of non-recyclable plastic bags can be harmful to the terrestrial and marine environment.
His voice, in opposition to a possible law that would have abolished any proposed ban on plastic bags, has reached the governor Pat Quinn through a collection of signatures carried out via the web. He later agreed to meet the XNUMX-year-old environmentalist personally.
Abby Goldberg's opposition was aimed precisely at the “Plastic Bag and Film Recycling Act”, which allegedly prohibited the inhabitants of Illinois from campaigning for the abolition of single-use plastic bags. Governor Pat Quinn took Abby Goldberg's plan at his word, expressing its veto against the new regulation on the day of last August 26th.
Quinn could only thank the girl for her commitment to protecting the environment. Abby Goldberg now appears proud to have achieved her goal and to have been able to demonstrate how young age need not necessarily be an obstacle in an attempt to support the rights of citizens and the defense of the planet. Abby got ben's backing 170 thousand people, which, in Illinois, will now be able to continue with their campaigns in favor of the abolition of single-use plastic bags.
