Thanks for the post! I have always been a stickler for recycling & reducing the use of plastics. Yes, plastic packaging has made life a lot more comfortable than the more healthy practices of the older days. But at the rate at which we are going, it is not long before the coming generation will ask a similar if not more demanding question to the likes of the young cashier in your story. They would probably say :
"That's our problem today. Your generation messed up big time and did not care at all to save our environment for future generations."

I definitely agree, but then I also think about the industrial revolution and how the "quantity over quality" mentality was created when producing products. This was when products started being made cheaply so that consumers would have to keep buying in the future.
