Good But Bad

My most often used grocery store has discontinued using the plastic bags like in the picture above..they used to charge 5 cents each. Now, if you need a bag, there’s cloth reusable ones that cost 25 cents.

Its good that they stop promoting a source of plastic when plastic litter creates so much trouble in this world.

But my kitchen and bathroom trash cans are designed to re-use these plastic bags with the handles.

So, soon I’ll have to start buying the white kitchen trash bags by the box..The plasttic in them is much more durable and much less biodegradable than the flimsy plastic grocery store bags. Not to mention I’ll need new trash cans.

Plus, literally everything at the grocery store comes wrapped in plastic

Humans need to take action about our plastic waste, but sometimes it seems so ineffective and hopeless.

Too bad we couldn’t have transitioned straight from the paper bags of the past to cloth, and skipped the plastic era.

Have a Happy Tuesday, April First
