The government says it wants to get rid of single-use products like wet wipes, and wants to encourage wet wipes that don't contain plastic and can be flushed. The article says wet wipes contain biodegradable plastic, but an industry spokesperson says that wet wipes save water (probably true), and are biodegradable.
Well, are they or aren't they? If the industry's response is “these things are already biodegradable, no need to ban them”, surely you should either investigate that in greater depth, or call them out for being liars? Not just print their statement and move on?
