[quote:Anonymous Coward 80409806:MV80OTYzNjM4XzkwNzc0MDczX0QxNUI2NEIw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 78663985:MV80OTYzNjM4XzkwNzc0MDQ4XzZEQTRFRUZC] yes so living in a place where this has been the law for a few years here's what happens: instead of the biodegradable bags that we had before that barely made it home before disintegrating everyone now buys 'permanent' shopping bags that are made of heavy duty plastic that will biodegrade. fine you say, you have one bag for life! as it turns out people go to the grocery store quite often and at some point everyone forgets to bring their 'permanent' bags. so they buy one or more to fit the groceries they bought because every store sells them with their own logo on them. pretty soon everyone has a cupboard full of 'permanent' bags that they start getting rid of. multiply this by every person and multiple trips per week to grocery stores. this is the long way of illustrating the insanity of the present day - unless of course you profit from the sale of heavy duty plastic and cloth shopping bags in which case you are likely not even reading this because you are enjoying a tour of your 10th country estate house.
