In our moral crusade against impending environmental disaster, it astounds me that packaging is still given little thought beyond what we should do with it once

In our moral crusade against impending environmental disaster, it astounds me that packaging is still given little thought beyond what we should do with it once we already have it. I think it would be a good idea to place some kind of rating on packaging to encourage purchasers to be more cognisant of what they are actually taking responsibility for beyond just the contents. I can't help but feel like we are going backwards here - especially when I see things like individual bananas being sold on trays[1]. [1] http://i.imgur.com/WPaVBTv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/WPaVBTv.jpg
