Default Re: Single use plastic bag ban by govmint

Quite a few year ago we lived without a car due to living aboard a yacht, we would row ashore with our bikes in the dinghy, ride up to the supermarket, buy a weeks shopping, we left every bit of unnecessary packaging at the checkout for them to dispose of and pack our groceries into our backpacks and ride back to the dinghy.

To us it was just a normal shopping experience and didn't think it was to hard to do....... so my point is why is it so hard for consumers to leave some shopping bags or boxes in the boot of their car and just put what they buy back in the shopping trolley, wheel it out to the carpark and transfer everything into your own bags/boxes.

Anyone who has sailed offshore and seen the plastic islands floating out there where this stuff ends up will appreciate why they are stopping single use bags.
N.B glass on the other hand sinks to the bottom and provide houses for fish, crustaceans and is handy for shipwrecked message sending.
