Reduce the use of plastics

We use plastic bags when we buy from shops: I will take reusable cloth bags. An estimated 500 billion to one trillion plastic bags are used each year, as many as 2 million per minute - Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook. Plastic film covers bowls for reheating in the microwave or storage in the fridge: I will use plates or containers with lids instead. Many products come in plastic wrappers: I will consider purchasing goods not in plastic.
