good to have you with us terms and let me just pick up on one measure the german supermarket chain aldi which has supermarkets all around the globe has just introduced a one send your roasts and charge on plastic bags or small ones where you put fruit and vegetables in does that make sense in my opinion it doesn't make sense taught me i think the best that you could hope for from something like that is that it's a symbolic gesture but then the question would probably be what is that supposed to symbolize because these are supermarkets where almost every shelf is kept covered in products wrapped in plastic and the german government says that it is in fact talking with supermarkets about phasing out or convincing them to do away with these lightweight plastic bags for fruit vegetables all together but there seems to be no sign of an actual ban on the horizon and the same as we said goes for plastic carrier bags germany has introduced a levy but it hasn't and don't think it's planning to and as a as long as they're around i should think that people will use them now there's a recent study

putting your fruit and vegetables into a thin plastic bag will no longer be free of charge at aldi andgermany the multinationals hooper market chain is going to charge one cent a bag starting this summer the aim is not to increase profits but to produce toxic waste according to the environment ministry germans used more than $3000000000.00 of these plastic bags last year that $37.00 per person the says it hopes that competitors will follow suit. and that fit for me and the d.w. business team here in berlin thank you very much for watching. plan 9 is the coffee bomb from the amazon in just a minute how lead to its name to brazil's was a populist outrage now it's grown on a number scale up with lots of chemicals. incentives on his current nose the traditional way of sustainably and for you mr sides but they are struggling to survive in the face of mass production of the 2060 minutes on d w. so what you'd have to get through the bundesliga break without a football thanks. again. to keep the little cut from submit some excitement. not some. legs to 19 the all over the results here on the d

looking at germany german retailer aldi which is also present around the globe they have just announced it in germany wants to charge one euro cents for plastic bags of food vegetables and for example what will that make a difference i don't think so i think at best that's balik. although i'm not entirely sure what is symbolic of because i think if they were genuinely keen to make a statement they'd be looking to slash plastics right across that that chain of products and that doesn't seem to what's happening the german government as i understand is actually in the go stations with supermarkets not only is generally in germany and they are talking about the trying to supermarkets to phase out or completely stop offering customers these lightweight plastic bags or for the holidays that to be acceptable consumers i don't think is all that likely to be except maybe something's a thrust upon us and we go along with it but i think the thing is that in actual fact germany is not proposing outright ban just as it hasn't done with plastic carrier bags i mean a lot of countries around the world
