Dear FT,
To be frank, I actually support those blogshops who do not give out plastic bags - this is their little effort to get the going green message across.
I am sure with all the publicity in the media, everyone knows how important it is to save the earth from pollution. Plastic is a material that harms the environment - if it ends up in the sea, turtles die eating it (assuming that it is jelly fish)!
Only through reducing the use of the material in the first place, we do not have to resort to recycling at the end of the day.
I don't think it's so much a hassle for the buyers to prepare shopping bags themselves. As a buyer myself, I do not mind at all bringing along a plastic/paper bag with me when I do COD with sellers. They do not take up much space right?
And I noticed that most sellers just put the items in used plastic/paper bags (eg Vincci plastic bags) and I'm totally fine with it. I am looking forward to the items, not the fancy plastic/paper bags provided by the buyer!
I think I shall end here before I sound like an environmental freak, but I would like to stress again that it takes everyone's efforts to make this world a better place.
To all the blogshop owners who initiate this green practise, well done!
