While waiting for the cinemas to open yesterday, my sister & I stopped by the bookstore to look around & found these eco-friendly products on display.
It's a line of school & office supplies (note pads, pens, pencils, erasers, stationery & journals) made of recycled materials.
What I love about it: the kraft paper/cardboard packaging without the plastic wrap
Where to buy: any National Bookstore branch
In light of the recent rule in some MM cities that ban plastic bags, I think the city law should also ban plastic packaging from manufacturers. :) In QC, almost all stores use paper bags, but I really find them useless if they don't have handles, and the kraft paper they use are so cheap, they easily tear. You can't recycle them at all. Haaay. Fail.
ReplyDeleteYup, the brown bags here are not that sturdy enough to carry the weight of our purchases. So unlike those from other countries. Para masabi lang na gumagamit ng brown bag.=(
