Letter Published in The National UAE on 14 June 18 Saving the climate is an end that justifies inconvenience    I write in reference to your editorial Profligate plastic waste needs action now (June 12): The National’s passionate editorial on the scourge of plastic waste was an interesting read and also echoed a very important truth. It really is high time that people took serious steps to reduce their single-use plastic usage, start recycling more and work towards saving the environment for future generations.Already today a number of countries have started implementing policies to eliminate single-use plastics in the day to day lives of their citizens. As your editorial noted, it may soon be the case across all European Union member states. Saving the environment is an end that clearly justifies the inconveniences of doing away with plastic.K Ragavan, Denver
