  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use Reusable Bags
    What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reuseable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to establish this a successful habit?

    I use a small shoulder size backpack as my purse which helps help when carrying smaller items when I am without a bag. If I do happen to need a larger one and don't have my reusable ones with me, I always choose the one that can be recycled.
