i'd really like amazon to get rid of all possible packaging. I wonder if Walmart, Target and Amazon could agree to only sell products without cosmetic packaging

  I've always thought we should put responsibility of recycling on the seller, the incentive is not there for them unless they have to manage the waste. Walmart should have giant bins that accept our product packaging waste: styrofoam, plastics, cellophane, all of it goes to a single bin, and now they have to sort and recycle it. Then the incentive would change. Maybe we can't do it with bins, but a recycle Tax paid directly by the marketing assholes. It wouldn't take long for Walmart to start demanding more simpler recyclable paper packaging over plastic if they took responsibility for the waste they generate for their packaging.
