Well.. Let’s see.. I was shopping in Jawad yesterday and no body said anything about the reuseable bags! just the normal plastic bags and that’s it..
As for me.. I do want the country to have more enviromental awarnce but not on the poor Bahraini citizen! Now we even have to pay for the shopping bags on the top of the items that we already pay tripple the price for these days!
I hope they do something to solve this problem seriously..
The very unfortunate reality is that many people don’t really care about anything unless it stings them in the pocket, especially here in Bahrain where most people live from very low salaries.
This is a first step, I think that although prices are skyrocketing through the roof, many people buy more food then what they need. Yes, I do agree that we like eating many varieties of food each meal but at the end of the day, we’ll only take a bite of each and the rest goes in the fridge until it becomes inedible and thrown in the trash! We need to become wiser consumers if we are ever to survive this inflation catastrophe

People who lived abroad as you did could accept the concept easily cuz those countries have awareness about environment so I guess we need time to adjust to the concept although I use a lot of plastic bags for many things and I need time to replace it
