GREENURT team be a participant in reducing the use of plastic bags by using a goodie bag from opini.id, we recently got it from opini.id's seminar being held at the Catholic University of Atma Jaya Jakarta
As we know that the plastic waste is currently be a warm conversation in the world, especially in Indonesia's supermarket. It reaped a lot of pros and cons, because the government has calculated, over the last 10 years the use of plastic bags to increase steadily. Within a decade, about 9.8 billion pieces of plastic bags used by the people of Indonesia each year. From that number, nearly got 95 percent of the plastic bag into the trash. While it took very long soil to decompose a plastic waste. So, the government set prices for plastic bags in shopping centers amounts Rp. 200, - but it's very unfortunate because the public still lacks care about this and think this is trivial, I've heard stories of a cashier at a large supermarket and he said that there are still many people who pay the plastic bags that person even gave money for Rp. 500, - / plastic bags. It proves there are people who do not care about the environment, they consider the price of Rp. 200, - it was very cheap when you want delivered here that we need reduce plastic waste rather than buy them. we, as the young generation should support the government program by replacing the plastic bag into cloth bags for shopping. Better reducing than nothing.
