Well, is everyone ready to start writing there letter?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Sounds like a plan! ๐
Also I think we could start with Target, and then move on to other stores, what do you guys think?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Yeah I really like that idea! Are we still going to write to Target?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Yeah, good idea. Do you guys want to write to Target, then other stores after that, or just write to all stores at the same time? Well not all stores. ๐

Oh, I get it thanks!

I have a question, when you say making people pay for it, what does that mean? Like making people pay for a reusable bag, or making people paid if they don’t bring a bag? Sorry I was just wondering. ๐

Hi guys, this isn’t related to the Target letter, but I read this book called Max Einstein. At the beginning there’s not much, but Max (who’s a kid) ends up going to Congo and uses renewable energy to help the little village get electricity, so that kids don’t have to go too mines anymore. There’s also four other books, one is about climate…[Read more]

I’m good with Target, and I don’t think that Target would like the idea of making people pay, but banning it might work. Definitely trying to get them to reduce there plastic bags would help, because I don’t think the whole store would go plastic free, well maybe one day. How should we start writing our letters?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Or should we all decide on one store because we all live in different places?

So, would Grace like to do target, Claire could do Walmart and I could do?? I don’t know about me, anyone have any suggestions?
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Yeah, good point. Everyone try to find a store near them that produces the MOST plastic, so like if target produces more waste then that would be a good choice.
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Because that’s what we’re planning to do.
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Oh, cool. Do you think it would be a good idea to write to target or shop rite, about their plastic use.
Emerson posted a new activity comment 4 years, 11 months ago
Yeah, they don’t produce too much plastic, but still I think it could work. One time when we were out picking up trash we found one of targets plastic bags.

Oh, I live in Texas. What should we do? Maybe just do local stores near us?
Hmm… Iโm not sure. Maybe we can just do a simple store like shop rite or target
Yeah, they don’t produce too much plastic, but still I think it could work. One time when we were out picking up trash we found one of targets plastic bags.
Emerson, I live here too, and I think we have more Walmarts and H-E-Bs here, so it might help writing to them too?

Well it would be something like California where people need to bring a reusable bag (or Target could provide some) but then if a customer wants a plastic bag, they will have to pay a bit of money to be able to get the plastic bag (kind of like they have to buy it). That way, it will encourage most people to not use plastic bags.
Oh, I get it thanks!
Np! 😉
Should we write to more than one store? 🤔
🤔 that would be good so we can get more stores to limit on plastic bags
Yeah, good idea. Do you guys want to write to Target, then other stores after that, or just write to all stores at the same time? Well not all stores. ๐
I think that is a great idea! ๐
Sure! We can do that ๐
If we wanted, we can use Change.org and start our own petition. I saw the โstart a petitionโ thing.
That would be awesome if we could start our own petition! How many signatures would we need?
Hmm… we can just set it to any number for the goal. Then it will show Target (or any store we do) that MANY people care about this issue!
When and who should start it?
Iโm not sure 🤔
Yeah I really like that idea! Are we still going to write to Target?
Yeah, probably Target. We might write to other stores though. ๐
Sounds like a plan! ๐
Also I think we could start with Target, and then move on to other stores, what do you guys think?
Yeah, I think that would be great! ✨
I really like that plan!
Well, is everyone ready to start writing there letter?
Yup I am! 😃
