I wonder if the Australian Government will force Australia Post to cease using the heavy duty plastic bags for parcels.??

The hospitals for using special coloured liners for waste?

If Government depts will cease using all the plastic folders etc??

With the likes of 3d printers will they become a waste problem from many peoples disgarded mistakes?

One of my personal gripes is premixed windscreen washer fluid.

1) The container is much larger than for needed for a bottle of concentrate, more packaging waste
2) Unnecessarily moving water around, more energy needed to transport
3) Larger volume of packaging than required, taking up more space on delivery trucks.

All for a bit of convenience in not having to find a tap

Perhaps in the same spirit pubs could accept concentrated beer syrup and a box of dehydrated water tablets?

pgk (sorry)
