Eschew Carry Bags.

The environment is exposed to unhealthy , unmindful,unwarranted trends, situations, and practices. The impertinence of the inhabitants is breaking the rugged exterior of mother earth. The easy way of life, the lighter approach to instant damages, the unfriendly response to the green emission call are taking us to the pitfall.

Earth quakes, which occurred once in a decade , is becoming a day to day routine. Tsunami which was unheard has attained a stature , that even a child can talk volumes on the subject. Drought in one part of the world, flooding in other end , makes life a risky endeavour. Why such wreckage’s happen ? Giving a little thought to it ,will point the accusing finger on none other than  all of us.

Well, I regularly visit the supermarkets in my area. I do not buy everyday, but just go round them , to compile the  behaviour of the  buyer. The supermarkets  have a stack of the carry bags. The cashier , after preparing the bill, packs the things in a carry bags in different sizes. The customer  takes it with glee. The next day after emptying the provisions in the respective receptacles, the Carry bags are thrown out. They lie in the open. These bags do not get eaten up by the earth, like paper bags. They lie for  long, until the civic authorities come and clean up. The garbage thus collected is dumped in the rivers are in the ocean whichever is nearby adding fuel to the fire.

Once I had a mind to advise the supermarket chiefs , not to provide the plastic carry bags, instead give the customer paper bags, or  importantly force the buyer to bring his own bags, thus saving the environment. I restrained from committing myself. just for the sake of putting ina blog which will have a wide circulation, and which will reach people of standard intelligence. The super market  supervisors will refuse to see reason, and will find fault that because of the denial to extend carry bags, the sales dwindled.

When are we going to learn:?

We have to ensure that the generations coming after us should have a safe , secure , healthy environment to survive.
