And you can eliminate plastic utensils from your carry out it's not hard motherjones.com/environment/20…

Apps like @trycaviar and @grubhub and @seamless and @ubereats could make this easier by building in a "no utensils please" into their systems.

@Grubhub @Seamless @UberEats Yes we need to fight for big systemic changes to help the environment but YES, ALSO, everybody does need to do their part to cut emissions and plastic. Don't let yourself off the hook.
