  1. To begin with: If Coca-cola want to manufacture all these bottles, they should have them returned to them. A 25c charge for the return of the bottles from every store. If they sell them, return them.

  2. You buy milk in plastic, salads in plastic tubs, meat wrapped in plastic, face it, everything you buy comes wrapped in plastic then we're told we can't put them in a plastic bag because they're bad for the environment. But we can buy plastic rubbish bags, freezer bags and all sorts of other bags that are made of plastic. Bring back glass. OK we can't buy frozen vegetables in paper bags, but we can compromise. Everything doesn't have to come in plastic and it does, except for the canned food. There is also an enormous amount of items on the supermarket shelves that have been making us very sick for decades and still they're for sale while the manufacturer and the Government smile for the money brought in. The medical profession do alright out of it too.

  3. Much of that waste that was supposed to go to China ended up dumped in Indonesia. And they didn't want it.

  4. Pollution starts with the manufacturer. They're the problem, they're the reason it all ends up in the rubbish.

  5. Banning one item at the counter isn't going to work while you can still buy them in the store.
