   @SmudgeTheInsultCat Paper bags are better for the environment than plastic bags are. No, you're not deforesting a forest by using paper bags. Trees, by law, have to be replanted at a 3:1 ratio. Plastic… well you know what that does.

     @StampedingLonghorn @SmudgeTheInsultCat Plastic isn't even economically recyclable and plastic tossed into the recycle bin often ends up going to landfills or incinerators anyway.

     A wiser place would have something down to be a disincentive for mixing plastics like LDPE with cardboard, or packing products with wax paper that has a longer decomposition time than uranium. or everything about polystyrene.
     
     Also something to be said about the trouble people already have when it comes to recycling the 2-3 (maybe 4 but thats a whole other discussion) plastics that do some degree of viability.
