I think it's high time we start charging people for destroying the environment, and plastic bags are a good place to begin. Grocery
stores should start charging 10 cents every time a customer requests a plastic bag. Maybe then, people will get on the bandwagon and
start bringing their own bag. Everybody knows that plastic takes forever to degrade and gives off toxic byproducts in the process. We
simply can't go on producing plastic bags in such quantity and dumping them in the landfill. "Convenience" has to start taking a backseat
to caring for the planet.
Sadly, the United States is miles behind in this regard. Ireland, for example, has charged people for plastic bags for nearly a decade.
Paris, France, has also begun charging for non-biodegradable bags, and so have 50 other countries! But this brilliant idea has not caught

What effect is created by the plaque posted on the gate at the entrance to the family's home in nadine gordimer's "once upon a time"? the words written on the plaque offer readers a foreshadowing of the story's outcome without revealing the actual conclusion, the author's use of flashback allows readers to understand what is at the heart of the issues of encroachment in the suburban neighborhood the repetition of the words written on the plaque presents an oxymoron because readers already sense that the plaque has been ineffective in warding off intruders. the author introduces a paradox in which readers are presented with a warning notice when no actual infraction has taken place.
