Oh!the twinge of quilt we feel if we say yes to a plastic bag at the shops.
We all know the feeling But does our concern about the amount of plastic choking landfill, not to mention seabirds,need to go further than just the environment...could our daily plastic exposure actually be harming our health? amajor component of many plastics,
Bisphenol A(BPA) is everywhere-not just in plastic containers but also lining tin cans- and it's increasingly under scrutiny because of its potential,in large quantities,to inflict harm on humans.
Our make ourself crazy if we try-that's be too alarmist because we don't know for sure that harm is being done.We just know that we're not doing enough!
Todays is all in SUNNY HAPPY EASTER weekend 20-04 day full of joe!

Dearest Michiko,
We have always tried to live as environmentally friendly as we possibly can. Since we prepare all our meals at home, we can succeed in avoiding plastic. But you are right, it is frightening to see more and more people that don't seem to 'think' when tossing out plastic of any kind. It can do a lot of harm in nature and often birds and animals are the victims of irresponsible humans!
Hugs to you and have a Happy Easter holiday!

One of my kitties wants to play with plastic bags, but I put those away as they can harm my kitties if ingested.
The photos are very lovely. Have a great day, Michiko san!
Dearest Michiko-san;
We have system dividing garbage from burnable and unburnable. But yes, it is not enough. We tend to look for the convenience rather than environmentally friendly. Very sad for our precious earth, isn't it!
Have a happy weekend and Easter, my friend.
Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Thank you for visiting my blog. My husband are still playing golf and he like it very much.
Today we will meet all our children and grandchildren and eat Easter-dinner.
Now we have spring here, but it is not so warm yet.
I wish you a Happy Easter!
Hugs (kramar)! :))
