18th April 2008. A few days ago all the state environmental ministers and the federal environmental minister, Peter Garret, met to discuss the phase out of plastic shopping bags. Any logical person would think that there where only three alternatives – get rid of the damn things altogether , the best solution, or maybe charge shoppers for their use, or reward them for use of environmentally friendly bags, perhaps lessor solutions but all the above having great community support —What did they do -- ‘sweet F A’.
Maybe Garret should go back to singing – from memory even that wasnt too hot.
