Re: More 'save the planet' crap
I understand that we have all got used to the idea of having bags for everything, and it is unlikely that we will suffer the consequences.... but your children & grandchildren will.
Think back to when you went shopping with mum! You went into a shop, asked for what you wanted to buy & the shopkeeper would ask if you needed a paper bag.
Supermarkets decided that you could get your own food from shelves & pay at the checkout. They sell more that way, especially when a lot of fruit & veg is already packed in containers!
Everything we have got used to doing is destroying the planet & making the supermarkets a fortune, so I would like to see small shops return to our high streets. They may be a bit more expensive, but they would reduce the need for packaging & be happt to serve you 2 apples & a carrot, if that is all you need.......so probably reduce waste!
We never understood what damage all this plastic was going to do, but children are now learning, so ask yourself if you think it is worth saving the planet for future children & animals? If you think it is, life may be a bit more difficult for us, but future generations of all creatures will have a better world to live in!
