Plastic is Spastic

Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Week for our company this year decided to bring the attention of staff to focus on little things that we can do for the environment. One of it is to try to reduce our use of plastic bags. Now, I wrote 'reduce' as I know it is not so easy to stop using plastic bags altogether as we still require them for purposes such as the function as garbage bags. But we can always start with declining to use plastic bags when all we need to get from the store is a loaf of bread or a carton of milk. We can do without those small bags.
So how do we carry those little bits of shopping when we need to? Well, this year's HSE Week gift is no longer a theme T-Shirt (thank goodness!!!). It is a reusable shopping bag. Not a bad idea....as the company HSE slogan goes..."Little things....big changes"
