I think that it's about time they did something about them. It wasn't all that long ago that you could go shopping and they had the big thick brown paper bags to put your groceries in.
Yeah we have native lizards and birds and we have a cat, that is locked in the house every night and that has also been desexed.
If pet owners were more responsible there wouldn't be a problem with unwanted kittens.
The best solution is obviously a BinDow. It is a combonation of a bin and a window. Put the bin on the otherside of an easy to get to window. When you have rubbish, slide open the window, and chuck it straight into the bin.
Its about time to be brave like Bunnings and just DO IT, no bags , boxes recycled customers happy.
I think it could and should be done, sooner not later
QLD is looking at adopting the same ban....great!![]()
At work we deal with Sea Turtles that have "floating disease" - it's where they've ingested a plastic bag which then gets caught in their bowel, causes a bacterial gas build up under their shell and hence the "floating" part.
Not being able to dive for food, they starve - That's if the sun doesn't bake them alive first.
- not a nice way to go!![]()
Recently there was a croc that died here, when they opened it up, it was full of plastic bags!
