IKEA - Says no to Plastic bags

I was at the IKEA store (The Swedish home products giant) during the weekend. Starting from 22nd April ( Earth Day) , IKEA announced that it would stop offering free plastic "carry" bags at its stores. Another bold initiative to reduce waste and build a green future.

This is what IKEA says about this initiative.

P.S : Btw, one of my favorite restaurants now is the cafeteria inside IKEA. Awesome food they serve !
