packaging imo is THE WORST i am in japan, so maybe it’s worse (here i can see it because we sort everything) but the amount of plastic garbage just from buy the essentials (soap, tea/coffee, cooking oil etc) and cardboard for everything is absolutely insane a lot of things and packaging in stores is just to compel you to buy it (sturdiness, printed imagery, size etc), with little to do with the size of the product itself, and this just creates inordinate amounts of garbage... i am always amazed at this the other thing is, when i buy online, i notice almost always the packaging is same as in-store, meaning more waste... i have already bought it, i don’t need enticing nice packages in that case, just bubble packaging (oh don’t get me started on that) is enough... we really need to fix this package and wrapping waste: it’s only going to get worse as other economies (and consumerism) keep growing [edit] spelling
