Though reducing plastic waste is a great goal and i am glad for this victory, in (yanktown) grocery stores there is more crap wrapped in plastic than ever. Even my produce aisle has1-2 layers of plastic around them. Putting 100 plastic wrapped items into a few canvas bags is 1 step forward 2 steps back.
I agree with anyone saying “more is needed”, and i don’t want to seem against this at all, but I do want an accounting of the increasing amounts commercial/industrial are producing in the first place.
If we don’t do that too, in fact if we don’t focus on those then consumer-level initiatives are just is spinning our wheels.
Also plastic wrapping stuff delivered. There is DEFINITELY something that could be inspired by interlocking blocks to replace all that plastic wrap for securing loads
