REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use Reusable BagsWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?
Xavier Gonzalez 9/18/2023 8:50 AMA helpful system I found if I find myself needing a bag is just carrying my backpack with me everywhere wether I'm going to buy something or not. That way I always have a bag just in case I or someone with me decides to buy something. -
