1000 Flowers for the Planet - #71 Purchase Unpackaged Goods
This idea is becoming harder and harder to
do as the world goes crazy wrapping everything in plastic, including all our
vegetables. Refuse to buy vegies in plastic – buy the loose ones, and don’t
worry about the shape and size of your fruit and vege. Don’t you know that
nature produces all kinds of different shapes in fruit and vege, just like us
humans?
I’m finding it really hard to think of
products that actually come without packaging of some type. If you can make
suggestions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Meanwhile ...
If you can buy clothes off a hanger instead
of in a packet, do so. If you can buy a pencil from the newsagent instead of a
plastic packet with more than you want, do so. If there is a choice between a
product in a fancy plastic package and the same thing unpackaged, buy the
unpackaged one. This single use plastic wrapping frenzy needs to be tamed. Do
what you can to reverse the packaging trend.
