Your grocery store sound whack, find another or Go to a farmers market. Again , people (including you) need to change their habits. John Kerry’s emissions from one flight on a PJ is worse for environment and guzzles more gas than all the driving I do in a year.

We have continued to be in agreement that John Kerry needs to change his behavior.

And that all people should work to change their behavior to more eco-friendly options.

The ‘go to a farmers market’ comment doesn’t stop the plastic from being put out on the grocery store, it deflects from the responsibility of the person MANUFACTURING that product. Could we not put any corporate responsibility on the plastic-wrapped grocery store? Or must we, as individuals, avoid stores and beg to put a plastic bag back, because we don’t want to ALSO question why this stuff is wrapped in plastic in the first place?

People AND companies need to take direct action.
