Plastic is one of the things that is the most presents in our lives, even though we try to find solutions to get rid of it. A lot of big companies are shifting their products into more eco-friendly and recyclable packaging to help lower the waste. Unfortunately, this isn’t being practiced by all the companies out there. Some even choose to do the exact opposite by wrapping their products in lots of layers in order to protect the product better, but only seeing the packaging of these products will make you feel mad about the whole waste that goes with it.
Who wraps one single tomato or potato with three layers of plastic?? That is completely insane, and people are done being quiet about it! All over internet, people are sharing images of the most ridiculous packaging they’ve seen, and it’s crazy to even think how thoughtless these companies are. There are a lot of sites where people have tried to raise their voice over this matter. One Instagram account that talks about this waste is pointless_packaging, that share some of the most awful packaging and call out the companies to face their own shame. As they say : “We’re not going away until the packaging does. ”
