Eco Event #1

I found this article on msnbc.com. They have all sorts of articles that relate to this specific assignment.

The title of the article is "Some abandon rebates for reusable bags".The article is about grocery chains like Krogers and Safeway are turning away from using plastic bags because they are tired of giving the consumer a choice between the plastic bags or the ones you buy and reuse. It allows the costumers to save money every time they bring in their bag. To gain costumer support Krogers has offered to anyone who uses one of these reusable bags will get fuel perks each time they use it.
I think that it is great that the grocery stores are making the choice for the customers to live a better and more eco-efficient lifestyle. I also think that it is cool where some grocery stores are persuading people to use the bags by giving them fuel perks. I think that all big name grocery stores should consider doing something like this because it can only do good.
