Letter: Newspapers need plastic bags?

Published: 01-09-2025 4:31 PM

The My Turn by Ms. Podlipny was great. Could the Monitor please get on board with reducing plastic use by asking their delivery people not to bag the daily paper in plastic?

I can see the need if it is pouring rain or we have just had a big blizzard, but every day? My attempts to save up the bags and return them to the carrier have not worked. Time, money, and plastic pollution can be saved.
