Jack is actually the definition of wrong on the subject. He's not going to do anything differently because he thinks it won't matter or he doesn't care or he just doesn't want to. Lots of people do that. That doesn't make Jack right, it makes all of them wrong.

It's actually a question of incentive. There's no instant gratification for someone going "out of their way" to use a paper bag over a plastic one. Let's say a grocery store offered you a 10% discount on your purchase if you used paper bags or brought in reusable ones. Would you do it then? You bet your ass you would. You get to see the immediate effects of your "effort."

Its not just individuals who are to blame for shit like this. There's absolutely no reason a grocery store couldn't hike up their prices 10% and then offer the discount I talked about above. They just don't want to.

I have a lot more to say, but I'm typing this in the Quick Reply box and using this thing for more than 25 words always makes me a little weary.
