Then as I walk into the sea of single use plastics that is the modern supermarket, apparently it's all fine because they are cutting back on plastic straws.

Just in case anyone was under the misapprehension that the amount of single use plastics in supermarkets was being reduced.

Why do people buy veg pumped full of CO2 & wrapped in plastic? Buy the free range unpackaged options and that's what supermarkets will provide, better still use a greengrocers, like Thornes in Penzance. Far less plastic & a lower carbon footprint. https://www.facebook.com/Thornesfrui...type=1&theater

Even in the early 1980s 90% of milk was still delivered in glass bottles. Dropped to a low of 3% in 2016, helped by supermarkets selling milk below cost to drive out corner shops & milkmen. It's finally rising again.

Sadly, I think preventing significant climate change has become a lost cause, it's all a bit too late now. We can still low the change a bit & we can do something about plastics, a bit like the ozone layer & CFCs.

Sunny intervals & showers today.
