Explain how. The worst offenders for unnecessary packaging are from manufacturers and found in the grocery stores; as an prime example, the bell peppers are packed in single-use non-recyclable plastic in sets of three or four.
How does forcing people to pay more for something that
actually isn't a problem change anything?
It sounds like a motion is forthcoming from within council to re-evaluate the bag bylaw today.
