PAP wants to make money and not save the earth

Otherwise, they would have started with retail to issue paper bags

Or arrange to set up a booth to sell reusable bags at the entrance

Lastly, stop all plastic bags and just sell reusable bags at the cashier

Like Japan Home

Urbanisation is the killer for CO2 emission.
Need to go back the old way for great CO2 reduction.

In USA all food scraps, leftovers just go into the sink which has a food crasher/grinder to discard away. Here we have to collect whatever in the sink into a plastic bag to throw into the disposable bin. Why don't solve this issue first before charging consumers at supermarkets?
