At least plastic packaging serves a purpose, it’s not ideal and we need to create better packaging or even go back to using glass jars etc.
Single use plastic carrier bags serve no purpose other than placating our laziness.
Once you’re in the habit of having a few reusable shopping bags in your car or even a small one in your pocket you don’t even remember using store plastic bags. Or you can usually take a cardboard box from the store to carry stuff in if you’re really stuck.
Capitalist consumerism incentivises laziness in the name of convenience and our environment and health pay the cost. Plastic === cancer
