Many people told me that they cared for the environment. When you asked them what have they done to show their concern, there was a long silence. Haha… many of us just took things for granted.
When I read the news with regards to using reusable bags for shopping, I decided to put some thoughts into actions. I packed some shopping and plastic bags for my family weekly grocery shopping trips. The shopping bags were for the dry goods while the plastic bags were for the frozen foodstuffs. The end result: no plastic bag obtained at the cashier & a proud me.
Taking a step back, I don’t think it is possible to do without plastic bags altogether. What about the rubbish we have to throw, especially the food waste which can be quite a mess? There is also the marketing challenge which supermarkets and malls have to deal with. For example, what should supermarket A do when their customers use supermarket B plastic bags. You certainly do not want your competitor to have the publicity you suppose to have.
As someone is coming up with some brillant ideas, I think what we can do now is to take out our shopping bags and reduce our use of plastic bags ![]()
