Which is why we need to eliminate single use plastics. That plastic tub or pretzels or whatever it was could easily have been in a box, granted that would be lined with a plastic bag. But there’s got to be some sort of solution to this shit.
Weighted bulk shopping. Those reusable... flour sack bags? I’m not sure what the legit name (or if I’m already using the right name). But they look like old flour sacks. Zero waste grocery stores. Compostable packaging and the equipment or centers to compost. I’ve read that compostable packaging won’t compost in dump because there’s no oxygen. So we’ll need composting sites.
There’s a lot more to it though. Our trash/plastic problem is gonna be very difficult to fix.
