Get your Be-eco bag
Posted by Martin in Green tips, Reduce, re-use, recycle | 16 January 2008
This Christmas my better half decided to do a bit of environmental evangelism and give the shoppers in the family a Be-eco bag.
The idea is simple. Place all your re-usable carrier bags in the eco bag and then take it to the supermarket, hang it on your trolley and when you get to the check-out instead of taking new bags, re-use the ones from your eco bag.
I have to say it took some explaining, before my mother grasped why she needed a bag to hold her bags!
Now all we need is a simple eco device, to somehow detect that we're off shopping and to remind us to take the eco bag!
