Plastic Bag Found at the Bottom of World's Deepest Ocean Trench
There is no substitute for you, the person reading these words, to stop accepting plastic bags and as much similar things -- coffee cups, utensils, etc.Each reduction makes the next easier and simpler. Eventually you work up to fewer cars and bigger reductions.Most importantly, you find the reductions improve your life. Most Americans could probably cut 75% with zero problem. More likely increased self-awareness, community, savings, health.I cut out about 95% of packaged food about 3 years ago. The last time I had to empty my trash was June 2017.More importantly, I've never eaten more delicious (nor saved as much time and money). The success led to reductions in other areas and I keep finding more because I look because it improves my life. There's nothing special about me. Anyone can do the same.
