You all know that I have been a little obsessed with the huge amount of single-use plastic bags used in Thailand every day since I got involved with a reusable bag project there this summer.
Because of that, I was SO EXCITED to see that the first 7-11 in Thailand has eliminated plastic shopping bags. You can read the story here. Now, Google tells me there are over 8,000 7-11 stores in Thailand, so one store is just a drop in the bucket. But it shows that opinions are changing, and I hope that when the store sees that it has one less thing to buy, but sales remain the same, this might become commonplace in 7-11s across Thailand. Sometimes just a little win can make you feel so good - woo hoo!
