自备环保购物袋

正在看晚间新闻,说道本地超市的自备购物袋日定为每个星期三。同时也谈到虽然有六成的顾客表示支持自备购物袋日,却只有两成的人以行动支持。而当被问到时,民众表示是因为他们不知道是哪一个星期三要自备购物袋。对此我想表示我的看法。

推广自备购物袋日是为了让民众有环保意识,尽量少用塑料袋。既然如此,就应该常常带环保带到超市去,而不是只在被设定为”自备购物袋日“的那一个星期三自备购物袋。就算你只想在“自备购物袋日”自备购物袋,你难道就不能每个星期三都自己准备购物袋吗?这都是借口嘛。就老老实实的说 “我暂时还不习惯” 就好了,不是吗?如果民众不自动的准备购物袋,那这整个运动不就失去了意义吗?

I can't say that I always bring my own grocery bag when visiting supermarkets, but at least I try as much as possible not to ask for it, and just stuff the things in my own bag. Times when I do ask for a plastic bag in a supermarket, are when I purchased fruits and vegetables, frozen products, dairy, meat, chilled drinks etc. Reason being I don't bring a grocery bag with me but use my personal bag that I carry everywhere, which I try as much as possible not to be in too much contact with water except when in the wash. So I'll have the dried stuff in my bag and have the rest in a plastic bag. I still ask for carriers but at least I try my best to cut down on that, and as much as possible not to use them.

So stop giving ridiculous excuses and just bring your own grocery bags! Especially when it's a home-supermarket-home trip.
