Ban the use of styrofoam. I believe we should ban the use of styrofoam because it causes global warming and pollution

Created by L.G. on November 20, 2015

I would like to ban the use of styrofoam. I would like to do this because it is very harmful to our environment. It also helps global warming and pollution. Even though styrofoam is very helpful it is also very, very harmful to humans and the environment. Styrofoam is also non-biodegradable so that means it last forever.
Styrofoam also creates air pollution. Styrofoam is manufactured by using hydrofluorocarbons which have negative effects on the ozone and global warming. We always talk about how we want to "make the world a better place" but we're doing nothing to make it better. I believe one way to help make the world better and safer is to get rid of pollution.
