Paid plastic shopping bag

To reduce garbage and protect the environment, my good idea is to charge on shopping plastic bags by law. I believe it could lead to a huge reduction in resource consumption.  I have been concerned about giving away so many plastic bags at a supermarket.  I was always worried about the most people may be just throwing them in the garbage after unbaged.  If the shopping bags are not free, many people would start to use recycle shopping bags.
The old navy was giving away to the customer a free recycle bags when you shop during a sale. I thought it is good idea to attract customers and it is helping to raise awareness of environmental concerns.  I hope many businesses come up with this kind of earth-friendly ideas.

  2. I completely agree with you. Costumers should pay for the plastic bags and they should be more expensive everyday. In that way, people will carry the recycle bags always and that will be great for our planet.
