It’s a very, very slow suicide. Albeit Very slow. You almost can’t understand but that’s a massve suicide.

There’s certain things that are needlessly sold in plastic bags and containers. I remember getting pajamas in a thick plastic bag container, as if it couldn’t be sold like other pajamas: no such packaging needed. And there’s lots of vegetables and fruits being sold in plastic containers too, when they could be sold like in the outside markets.

I try and recycle as much as possible, food packages etc. And then I go to the supermarket and just look at the huge amount of cheap plastic halloween shit that lines the shelf at this time of year and wonder why I bother.

Back in communist Romania, drinks came in reusable glass bottles, packaging was paper or cotton, and plastic was rare.
Now everything’s wrapped in plastic and we’re told *we’re* the problem. The industry removed our choices, then blames us. Sticky bottlecaps and greenwashing won’t fix that.

These statistics kinda bother me. We have the choice of recycling and accept that we should be held accountable, but I have absolutely no say if bananas and apples are packaged on plastic bags. I shouldn’t be judged and measured on things out of my control.
Same thing with carbon footprint, I have no say on how my electrical power is generated..

It was really cunning of the corporations to let the consumer take the responsibility to clean up the plastic crap they force us to buy.
Don’t want plastic packaging, its your choice, just reduce the available products by 90% and be prepared to pay at least 100% more.

We think that we have huge amounts of plastic in the EU(we do), but after you visit Japan or the US you’d think that we don’t use plastic at all. The amount of single use stuff and unnecessary packaging there is absolutely amazing
