Ah. So you're one of those people who try to fool themselves into
thinking that each tiny action does not add up.

If every single person who bought those stupid 1-oz packets gave them
up, how many cubic yards of landfill space would be spared? Each
individual action contributes to the greater whole. Scale? Stop using
those tiny packets. Encourage your friends to as well. Everything
that's worthwhile starts off small.

I consider excessive packaging, a great example of how fat-cat
Americans waste out energy and resources on stupid excessive lazy
easy-way-out solutions. We're a huge infulence on other cultures that
are currently less wasteful than we are. how's that for scale?
