So.........what happened to recycling?
I put all my plastics in the Recycling bin, like they told us to do decades ago. As do most people on my street, and most people in general I wager.

Why isn't this shit getting recycled then? That is what they told us they were doing with it. Recycling it all. So what is the fucking problem?
It couldn't be that the powers that be were lying to us all these years about this stuff getting recycled, could it. That the bullshit line we were fed years ago about how we all had to do our part and separate our garbage for recycling, in order to save ourselves, was just that. Bullshit.
So if all this shit isn't getting recycled, why am I still being forced to separate out all this shit from my garbage, and put it in the recycling bin, and if it is being recycled, why the fuck does it need to be banned?

Once again, the policies of the powers that be contradict each other.
Take off your tin foil hat for a second. The issue is single use plastics aren’t being recycled and end up dumped all over the planet.

The Harvey's near me has no paper recycling bin in the restaurant. So using paper straws is pointless.
I would be genuinly surprised if any of the retail places with paper recycling bins actually recycle those items as one would hope. I suspect most of these customer seperated materials still go into general waste stream. Either from being contaminated by materials other than the what should be in there, or by lack of retail establishment ability to sort waste into recycle streams after they empty the store front bins...

Ever see Charles Bronson or Clint Eastwood drink from a straw, didn't think so.

I only keep three plastic water bottles in the house to reuse, Brita everything. I kept the large rayon bag I got from Sleep Country. Rayon is made from bamboo fibers, super strong. Not only does it hold all my groceries, I can do curls on my way back to the car.

Nik Dmitri doesn't drink from a straw neither.

Biodegradable is not necessarily environment friendly. What happens after the bag has degraded if it's foreign to the earth its not environmentally friendly
I did not know we import bags from out of space

How difficult is it to to take reusable bags and one of those box types with you once a week? I don't even bother with plastic on most veg and fruit either. Going back to reusable there now that the pandemic is over.

And they have nifty collapse ones that fit easily in a car compartment. Just buy a few and leave them there and you are set.

I also bought a nice set of wood utensils in a leather case for takeout. Take em in my backpackband on vacation. Easy peasy.

Those who stand much $$ to lose don’t care.

It is not suppose to be free. It is suppose to 5cents. All the others charge for bags as well. All stores do. Shoppers and Metro too. They just leave the bags there and work on the honour system. You are not honourable however and therefore steal them.

Years ago I forgot when, shoppers, metro never charged for plastic bags, other stores did not all. It was just no frills who charged them back then. Those plastic bags are cheap, you think the stores care about it , metro, shoppers, I check no bags off , only no frills I see them holding them like idoits lol. No frills used to have boxes by the front, they want you to buy plastic bags that ripped easily. At heathy planet they charged nothing for plastic bags, I went they numerous times before,

I never said stores cared. I just said you confirmed you are a thief.

You can justify it all you want. Every time you put “zero” when asked how many bags you used, you are stealing. That is just the facts.

There are many non-chain stores that do not charge.
There have been many times this last even where No Frills just asked me how many I needed, did not charge. Indigo does not charge.

At the Independent [YIG] they often ask if I need a bag after they rang me up. I am running low on bags to use for the kitchen garbage so I always take it if it is offered.
I don't however steal it, even though I am an adult, I am part of the system and don't throw things on the ground.
