While some people think that it is the responsibility of producers and suppliers to reduce 
product packaging, others feel that the responsibility lies with consumers. This essay 
will analyse both sides of the argument.

excessive amounts of product packaging are having on the environment; therefore, 
manufacturers and supermarkets need to minimise the amount of plastic packaging that 
is used to store and sell their products, or preferably use only 
biodegradable, recyclable, 
or environmentally friendly materials
. In addition, many people cannot afford to be 
selective about which products they buy, which is a further reason why all companies

from further destruction and pollution by limiting their consumption of products that 
are packaged in
