This is the same situation as climate change. Instead of doing sensible things, we banned plastic straws! (Now paper straws come in plastic packaging...). Or the situation that UK and Germany find themselves in (having invested in stupid but "green" solutions).

I didn't realise that a few regions banning plastic straws is literally the only thing the entire planet has done to combat climate change
