Reduce Wasteful Product Over-Packaging

To:  Trader Joes, Needham MA

PETITION TO ASK TRADER JOE’S TO STOP OVER-PACKAGING AND USE MORE BIODEGRADABLE/RECYCLABLE PACKAGING FOR THEIR PRODUCTS

In an effort to reduce pollution and protect the environment, we the undersigned respectfully request that the TRADER JOE’S chain of grocery stores immediately begins to reduce the over-packaging of their produce and other groceries and to begin using more biodegradable and recyclable packaging for their products.

TRADER JOE’S is a popular nationwide chain of grocery stores with their own line of groceries and household items. The packaging that they utilize is often neither recyclable nor biodegradable. This is a waste of resources that contributes to pollution and environmental degradation. Many people already boycott TRADER JOE’S because of this reason; therefore, it would be to the benefit of TRADER JOE’S, as well as the ecosystem, to adopt a more ecologically aware approach to the packaging of their products. By taking this initiative, TRADER JOE’S has an opportunity to become a leader in the environmentally responsible packaging of food and other products and to set an example for other grocery store chains and mass-marketers around the world. TRADER JOE’S, PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING - GO GREEN!

Thank you!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
