I remember back in my childhood black smoke coming from the manufacturing places & semi trucks. Now you see white smoke. If it can be done the single stream is better & far more economical. I do like taking my own bags to the grocery store. They pack & stack better. They are much easier to lift from the cart to my trunk. The insulated bags go on the counter closest to the refrigerator & non-insulated bags go on counters closer to other supplies. I do agree we all can make an effort to reuse containers. I now make my own insect repellent so I reuse the bottles. Egg cartoons in my childhood were made of a different material than the ones todayy. If we burn the garbage can the melted plastic still be used with concrete for roads and home building products?
