Re: Recycling plastic bags in Zurich
Yes, in Switzerland the emphasis is placed on people NOT using 1000s of plastic bags. Most people have a collection of cloth bags they take to the supermarket and re-use again and again. Or buy paper bags from the supermarket and re-use them until they fall apart. Even for clothes/shoes etc, many people refuse bags given and use their own.
REDUCE and RE-USE is a lot better than recycle. In the meantime, perhaps use the best bags you have for shopping, and perhaps others for your bins.
