Are you going to continue using single-used plastics? Why or why not?

I'm going to have to keep using single-used plastics but will try to use it less. Because I find it very hard to just stop using it because if I'm going to 7Eleven and bought alot of foods and milk but but I cannot use plastic bags but have to carry them all would be a really bad idea and take alot of times and for paper bag is not as strong as plastic so it cannot be a solution of plastic bags.
