Now, along with all the other things we have to dispose of, although putting an empty plastic wrapper in your own bin doesn%26#039;t amount to much, there%26#039;s still a whole load of packaging to be got rid of. So have you any constructive ideas as to how supermarkets can reduce packaging?
By the way, the fruit which comes in a tray and is celophane wrapped would be subject to all sorts of conditions I guess.
Also, pizzas seem to do well surrounded by a film although they are in a box. Do you think the pizza or any other food stuff would lose shape?
I%26#039;m still keen on writing to my supermarket but I must present really good arguments.

don%26#039;t sweat the supermarkets..they%26#039;ll be out of business by the time the envioro- whackos finish...better learn how to grow your own!...as for the plastic bags,save up(collect,round up whatever)as many millions as you can find and ship them(cheap, cause their light!)in a plain brown recycled box/ wrapper to your nearest enviornmental whacko office with a note inside telling %26quot; them%26quot; to get rid of them. That should take care of your problem. I%26#039;m sure they%26#039;d love to help you out.

Hi monument,
It%26#039;s not up to the supermarket, is it? It%26#039;s up to the consumer. If we keep buying it - they%26#039;ll keep packaging it. But, more importantly, if extra, jazzier packaging creates exttra sales, then we%26#039;re making the situation worse.
For me, if i see something that is over-packaged - I leave it on the shelf.
And why do they keep shoving freozen food into a seperate plastic bag? -
What?! It%26#039;s not the supermarket that decides on how a certain product is to be packaged-- it%26#039;s the product%26#039;s manufacturer/distributor! You assclowns!

I always try to buy things with the most packaging. I like to leave my impact on the environment.
