at the plastic bags’ bad role. Every year more than 4000 million’ plastic bags have been distributed by the supermarkets and shops including the little shops.

For example‚ the snow and ice disasters occurred during the last winter. No doubt‚ forbidding supermarkets and shops from handing out free carriers would be inconvenient

(ii) No Close Substitute: The
