In our climate, when we buy frozen or cold items that "sweat" in the heat, paper bags are wet and fall apart by the time we get home. The solution to this issue is to require biodegradable plastic bags that dissolve in short periods of time.

California has more ridiculous laws than any other state. The Democrats got involved several years ago with a plastic bag ban and just made things worse.

I've been using my own bags made of recycled billboard signs for over 30 YEARS, and I still have the same bags! I dont get what the problem is, we all know the effects and science. This is not about any political stance, thiis about saving our future
Plastic bags are another source of micro plastics. They are now found all over the world from the Arctic to Antarctica as well as in the tissues of human being and all animals. This is a serious problem that the plastic industry has tried to minimize with false claims of successful recycling.
ReplyWishing recycling of all petroleum based plastics be taken more seriously by the corp. world. State programs are obviously ineffective since they fund the corp. who only ship off the waste to other places. Much of this isn't monitored by the states. Only a fractional % of all plastics are recycled.

ReplyWe must do everything we can to protect our environment and the creatures who live here. People don't always make the best decisions in this regard on their own. That is when our government must step in to decide what's best for the majority.
ReplyWe have to protect our oceans and the environment!
