discourage the use of plastic in grocery store.
We take our developed nation for granted. How? Well, we all make trips to the grocery stores. We put our grocery in small plastic bags(just for transportation from the shelf to the cashier. But to think about it, do we really need to separate each and every single grocery into separate bags? and the moment we get home, we throw away those bags. My proposal - discourage the use of those plastic bags. The grocery store should place their grocery in small wooden/plastic baskets (the one we see at a farmer market). That way, they can easily weigh the goods the consumer is buying and then they can place the goods in a grocery bag(the polyester cloth bag). Hence saving us from the plastics which are harmful for us in the long run.
