shops from handing out free carriers would be inconvenient for the consumers. They have to carry the bags by themselves when they go shopping. Or they pay for the plastic bags. They cannot use the free plastic bags as the rubbish bags at home any more. They may feel bad because their costs are increased and their benefits are decreased. Consumers’ interests are less.
