bag when you go and make purchase at supermarket

etc

But frankly speaking .. who really do that to save the

environment... Laughing

will you do that?

For me No Crying or Very sad

the.owl SG

I always try to save resources, like reuse stuff like bags, and use as little electricity and water as possible etc. I hope everyone is like me then the world would be a better place.

banzie SG

I do...

I always refuse to take plastic bag if I can carry.

In Singapore averagely one person uses 14 plastic bag a day. Plastic bags are really classified as an hazard to the environment and take hundreds of years to degrade. Give our sons and daugther a chance to live a healthy life...

allentyb SG

I DON’T CARE

banzie SG

SELFISH BASKET... YOU ARE LIVING IN THE SAME PLANET WITH ME. DON'T MAKE ME SUFFER FOR YOUR MISTAKE THANK YOU>

Hogzilla SG

Me too.

I really dun see the need for a plastic bag if I can carry it. It make me look Auntie (I'm a guy)

honeymouse SG

Not sure about Singapore, but in Oz you can buy the so-called green bag made of some fabric for $1 and you can get a few of those for your shopping items. Just remember to bring them with you everytime you go shopping. Quite good. I do that too. Wink

Hogzilla SG

Btw har, shouldn't it be reuse and reduce rather than recycle? Rolling Eyes

elindra SG

I don't take a plastic bag if I don't need it and the item can fit into my bag
However, I do take the plastic bags when I go to the supermarket because that is what I use to hold my trash at home Laughing

banzie SG

Singapore also have but abit more ex than $1

hisoka SG

have but troublesome and expensive

besides you canuse those plastic bags you get Laughing

Guilmon1987 SG

Wats the pt? U take, they also will bring in new 1... u dun take they also will bring in new 1...

Even if they provide those bag, u must bring ur own there to carry stuff... they will bring in plastic bags... even worse... if those shops provide those special bag you can buy and reuse... they will nid to produce plastic bags + those special bags... even more harmful to the environment...

Unless u can change ppl's mindset... which is virtually impossible, its like telling ppl to use computer games to fight wars.

honeymouse SG

We do the same, use the plastic bags for domestic waste. So whenever the plastic bags supply is running low, I just leave my green bags home deliberately. Wink

banzie SG

Demand and supply.... if the demand is low there is no point for them to maintain status quo of plastic bags...

hisoka SG

Laughing

dunno leh, my side the plastic bags never overflow de. so i guess its ok not to get those green bags. Mr. Green

noahnoah SG

from the NTUC cashier who was a auntie lor

She say ok can

Wat A auntie that truly love the enviroment sia Embarassed

honeymouse SG

Cos' you're still living at home with your parents and you have mummy and daddy to do all the big shopping for you! Laughing

Only when you run a household, you get to know how much you could get from one shopping trip.

Say for example we buy a carton of eggs, 3 x 3L orange juice and a few bottles of 1L soft drinks etc..... we can easily go home with quite a number of plastic bags. The cashier here usually tries to separate heavy/breakable items in different bags - to make it easier for you to carry. Unlike Singapore, they will squeeze as many items in a bag if possible without thinking about the weight.

hisoka SG

actually i include the items they shop for.

i seldom go shopping anyway Laughing

photo_seeker SG

I support the move as it will encourage the shoppers to cut down usage of bags. Personally I don't request for plastic bags as long as I'm able to carry them with my bag or if it's a can of drink, etc.

However, perhaps the supermarkets would like to consider giving out plastic bags for wet perishable products such as seafood and meat.

MyPillowTalks SG

Use the bag this person is using....

Laughing

anyway, i oweis ask for more plastic bag
