This image of disposable plates and cutlery collected at the Camden Green Fair caught my attention. The photographer is Pat Tuson. All of this waste will end up in landfill where the plastic will remain for many decades. The food waste on the plates will decompose and release methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Shame the food producers at the fair didn't think about this issue and choose to use biodegradable plates.
