Starts from today, if we go to the supermarkets or chain stores, we have to bring our own shopping bags. If not, we will be charged 50 cents for each bag. I support protecting the environment. I am not very very keen on protecting the environment I admitted, but to a certain extent, I am.
I don't like the idea of taking our own bags to shop because I can reuse the plastic bags from the supermarket for putting rubbish in. I always ask,'What do people use to put their rubbish?' If people do not have plastic bags from the supermarket, they will buy plastic rubbish bags.
So, that is my point. I use plastic bags from the supermarket at least I can reuse them. If I don't have plastic bags from the supermarket, I have to buy plastic bags for only one purpose - to put rubbish in. In this case, we are not protecting the environment by fulfilling the demand of one of the 4 R's of Recycling - reuse. Can somebody work it out for me?
