RAI Corporation Internship Program

The thing that impressed me since my arrival in New York is recycling.

If you don’t recycle, you are fined. Everything is so meticulous! Almost perfect.

However, everything changes when I go to the supermarket. They give you a lot of plastic and paper bags. Employers fill them only half full. Is it because they may

break? I don’t think so. I can understand cheap supermarkets, but the strange thing is that you are given a lot of plastic bags even for organic and biological food.

Ironically it can be read on the bags: "Reuse". It seems that they don’t know that using a lot of paper bags means to produce a lot of waste, even if it is better for the environment.
