I always found it fascinating that in the 70's and 80's everybody moved away from glass and paper to plastic. I mean literally anything that could be converted to plastic from paper or glass was.
Do you think we'll ever revert back to just paper and glass again?
We are making some good strides with paper straws and the like, and mandating people bring reusable bags to the grocery stores - but I still see many of the stores I shop at still use plastic bags.
