\nI have lately been seeing in supermarkets a huge bin with sigh put up on it that says \u2018please deposit used bags here\u2019. No doubt I was highly impressed and hoped many others will follow suit. But the news that a supermarket chain NTUC FairPrice opened its first green outlet at City Square Mall at Kitchener Road in Singapore has left me speechless- in a positive way. It is a store that has over 400 bio-degradable and environment friendly products. Also there is a little incentive for customers who bring their own shopping bags by having special check-out lanes for them. Also there is a system where you can deposit your old plastic bottles and cans in return for vouchers. Agreed, that the setting up of the eco-friendly supermarket is 30% costlier than the regular ones, yet as long as it\u2019s for a good cause, a little extra money would not harm anybody, I\u2019m sure.<\/p>\n
