Something to look up to

I also consider myself an environmentalist, so I was pleased when I learned that the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, the Earth Day Network, mall owners and supermarket chains signed a memorandum of understanding last September 23 saying that plastic bags will not be provided anymore in malls and supermarkets on Wednesdays "to slowly shift public consciousness into using reusable totes."
Now, that, I think is something to look up to by pharmacy organizations in considering similar action to be implemented in drugstores and pharmacies to help protect the environment and also as part of their social responsibility.
