Walmart Virual Signalling ?

[MikePal]

Can't wait to see what the 'People of Walmart" will use to carry their stuff to their car. Watched a guy stuffing his pockets with a basket full of stuff one day rather than pay the $0.05

I see a new job opportunity for parking lot basket collectors.

However I do really hate plastic bags. I would trade any plastic bag in my life to get back plastic straws.

Well at 5 cents a bag, I think next shopping trip I will buy 100 more bags maybe 200. with what I have that will last me 2-4 years

Too bad they are not offering paper bags, I would buy and use those

How many tree does it take to make a fork now got a sliver from the knife lol.

I like the grocery bags they are good for small garbage bags .

I think Walmart is one of the most wasteful baggers lol. When you do a pick up from them they will give you 6 bags for 10 items hahah.

The problem is you won't see them doing anything inside the store to eliminate 'single use' plastics because the alternatives will cost them way too much. Not using the plastic bags saves them money.

It's all smoke and mirrors like most of this climate change nonsense.

Reusable bags are really not a big deal. Having snowmobiled all over Ontario for 30 years seems every trail into town goes by the garbage dump.
I’ve been disgusted at every one with the hundreds of plastic grocery bags stuck in the trees and blowing around for a km in every direction

Changing from plastic bags is not going to save the world but if you have ever walked an ocean shoreline you must realize that the world needs less plastic in it

So-i (like all of us)collect garbage in my kitchen. Anything and everything what is not recyclable or not compostable.And will not turn in a stinky mess in a day or two.
Collect them in plastic bags.Mostly "second"hand grocery bags(re -use ).

If and when they fully cut out grocery bags- i will need to buy plastic garbage bags.
What will be the difference:

For the Environment-those purposedly made garbage bags are thicker-harder to break down.
For me- more expensive plastic bags.

The way we live now-plastic all around-and with consumerisam ,we are made to become a THROW away society-the grocery bags(if used properly)make up tiny bit of the world garbage.
