i totally agree with this...i was eating lunch today and someone was trying
to decide what utensils to get (they're plastic) and she said: "oh well, it
doesn't matter, they recycle"...

what a looser comment...i generally try and bring my backpack with my where
ever i go as well so that i don't need to get bags if i have the space...or
take the panniers from my bike into stores for the same reasons...

imagine all of the saved waste if everyone just carried a canvas bag or 
backpack or something with them everywhere.
