Have you noticed how much packaging, especially plastic, is used in
supermarkets these days? When I was a child we had none, really.
Why is it so hard for supermarkets to make clear which plastics
can be recycled? Why are not ALL plastics used in supermarkets
recycled? They all have a lot of power over their suppliers and should
INSIST on this.
Basically, I hate plastic packages for so much, especially when it cannot be recycled.

Plastic banknotes
When on holiday in Canada a couple of years ago I was very impressed by the plastic banknotes which are very hard to wear out. I now see that a Scottish bank is introducing plastic £5 notes. See http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-27517606 .
It would be a good idea if the Bank of England also introduced plastic notes. It surely must save money in the long run as notes would last much longer.
If I remember correctly, the Canadian notes had different smells for different values, helping those with poor sight to distinguish between note values.
