My stupid country is banning plastic bags for supermarket stores. We now have to pay 15 cents for every "reusable" bag. Gone are the days when you could just walk in and expect your shit to be able to be carried.
Has your country done the same? And has your country installed a ban more stupid than this for anything else?

even plastic straws are getting banned here. Jut bring your own bags. I use the hard plastic bags from ikea.
banning disposable plastic bags is a good step, plastic is an environmental disaster
What are you a bored middle aged housewife? Get a life mate.
You are the reason this country is KEKED.
why are cunts so angry about this? is it because the 15/30/45 cents you have to pay? i dont get it honestly, seems like a complete non issue to me
WHATS NEXT? SHAGGING SHEEP GETTING BANNED IN NEW ZEALAND?
are you live under the rock and just stupid? let me guess you are global warming deniaer too
You are complaining online about a tiny inconvenience like it is the end of the world. Drink some concrete.
At least you can pay for a reusable. In my home town they simply banned bags and won't sell any kind. So if I pass by the super after work, I have to carry them by hand or in a fucking crate.
they don't even sell paper or canvas bags? that's fucked
Tiny inconvenience?
Mate, get yer hand off it, it's a big inconvenience to me when my country is full of cuks that allow themselves to be fucked in the ass until we have no freedom left.
You are like a housewife that gets beaten up by her husband and asks for more
explain urself u fuckin moron no one understands why ur so upset, do u get it? we wanna know why, lets talk about this bro
In Australia, if you want to pay for something that is higher than $10,000, you cannot pay in cash, you can only pay using a bank.
FREEDOM
This is to avoid dirty money, you scum
I think we still have plastic bags but I have been reusing those big ones for years anyway so I wouldn't really miss it if they banned the 2c ones.
makes me think of those stories of retards keepin like $100k in cash in a box under their bed then their house sets on fire lmfao
> country tries to reduce its exacerbated CO2 emissions by adopting logical measures
> such as curtailing senseless consumption of plastic
> REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS COUNTRY IS TURNING INTO A LITERAL GULAG
I hope you get skin cancer and your house is destroyed by floods.

i just keep a few in the boot of my car with me
Nothing wrong with that you moron, fish all over the world now contains plastic. We already fucked up.
the eternal anglo wants to keep polluting earth with its plastic shit, you are such fucking welfare babies holy shit

Welcome to the civlilised world Bruce.
Hell even China banned plastic bags
Been using a cloth bag for the last 7-8 years. Plastic bags just breaks anyway.
China bans everything
They even banned orgasms
I've only heard of Western countries, including my own, doing this. Funny thing is that the majority of plastic pollution comes from Asia and Africa....
They're doing their part.
theguardian.com
Then how comes there’s so many of them?
And why do they do shit like drink tiger piss to enhance their organsms?
Plastic pollution caused by western countries sending their plastic shit over there to get recycled, dumbass.
Go back to your job inspecting Muslim refugee pubic hairs now.
plastic is bad though
Plastic bags were a mistake
In 2 generations no one will miss them
They've cost 20 cents in most stores here for a decade. Last year even the clothing stores joined in.
Some guy did the research and 0% of Finnish plastic ends up elsewhere.
Yes.
Well plastic bags are exclusively for clientele of the short bus that can't plan ahead for 10 minuets so I fail to see your point.
Free* plastic bags are banned. Now they just ask 10 cents or whatsoever.
Paper bags would be the best solution desu
Just get yourself a cloth one. Will serve for a long time.
cunt why are you so pathetic? 15 cents is nothing for a bag, it costs $1.50 for 10 of the bags, plus the bags are like triple the size of the old ones, stronger and better for the environment, if you are too poor to pay $1.50 for 10 bags then you dont deserve groceries
>Will serve for a long time.
And smell like shit too.
Oh wait, hang on, I can't go shopping yet, my bag is still drying from the wash. kek
The council still put bags in the dog poo bag dispenser so thats good but if they stop im fucked
you dont have to wash them retard
go back to facebook you bored overweight 40 year old labourer, noone's "freedoms" are being infringed on because we want to make the earth a little cleaner.
>And smell like shit too.
Do your clothes smell like shit? Of all the complaints this must be the stupidest I've heard, you must be either a banana bender or a nswelshman.
>washing the bag
Since when? What the hell do you plan to put in it then lol.
they banned it 2 years ago here i think
even straws, cups etc
Hello, sir, would you like a plastic bag that is only 80% recyclable, for 15 cents?
Okay sir,
Here, have a paper receipt that we obtained from the logging of trees in the environment.
No worries mate, you're welcucked.
we farm trees you idiot
Paper is both biodegradable and made from a renewable resource.
Yes. It's fine, don't be such a cunt.
>we farm trees
>I wasn't hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid
we literally have tree farms you dumb cunt, they dont go chopping down random trees for paper
In France it's 1000€
LIKE and SHARE if you think this is FUCKED UP
Plastic is great. It makes the coasts here so colourful and comfy
kek take out our trashes norway
Do you know how long it takes for a tree to grow you fucking cuk
Longer than your dick
yes thats why we farm them
How do you pack your fruits or veggies? What is the alternative for plastic bags in this case? Packing fruits into paper bags seems weird to me for some reason
