The Organization was in charge of many new laws that pass the mandate of all plastics to be uniformed with a special resin code. This code closely resembles the recycling symbol which includes three chasing arrows in a triangular shape. The foundations most recent law passed includes the law SB 343. The SB 343 law forces all plastics in California to display this unique resin code in order to (ironically), not confuse the daily consumer of confusing the plastic product as recyclable. This also hits on they want the producers to "GreenCycle" or "Wish-Cycle" which is unlawful due to misconception of the products nature. All plastics are not from nature whatsoever and laws like these allow the production of Plastics to exist (the last statement cannot be fully backed up entirely though opinions).
