Do you think the government should force supermarkets to use bioplastics (Fully degradeable) carrier bags?

I don’t think its just about changing to biodegradable plastic bags, but also encouraging the reuse of plastic bags. I have to say that I used to never bring my own bags to the supermarket before but was encouraged to do it when they started offering green club card points for reusing plastic bags. I now have 3 of their bags to life which I only change if they tear and also carry a few extra regular plastic bags. Since I have been collecting my green club card points, I have also started to carry around a canvas bag in my car with me, so I have reduced my use of plastic bags in general. I think we need to try to continue to educate people about reusing, reducing and recyleing.
