A Solution

There's a solution? This is madness... Madness? This is reasonable!

But in all seriousness, to solve our plastic bag situation we would to start to have to take some pretty drastic steps. I, sadly, do not see it being solved within 10 years. As many countries have been shooting for. But, I do see the end of the tunnel somewhere in the future. What it would require is a switch to the reusable bags that Safeway and Sobey's are now offering. We could also start to go back to the paper bags we used a lot before. But the catch to using paper and not wrecking the environment would be to only use 100% recycled paper. I actually believe that recycled paper is stronger anyways so it would be beneficial both ways. When it comes to food that have to be put in plastic packaging we'd have to get into some heavy scientific research for a substance that is renewable and can keep food from going off. One day we'll find it out.
