China has decided to stop the use of free plastic bags. Supermarkets, shops and

outlets(经销店) in China can’t offer plastic bags any more.

Every year, people use too many plastic bags. They throw them here and there

person you love.

We have never forgotten the importance of saying sorry to our beloved ones. But

sometimes we fail to do so because, we are not brave enough to face those we hurt.
