I prefer to ban plastic bags but, I have seen the nasty, dirty, filthy, stained cloth bags many customers bring to the store for the cashiers to put groceries in. They are gross. Bring a clean bag.

Bad for creatures & environment. Usually you have to double bag items because the bag material is cheap, double whammy. Paper is friendly to all. It decays & goes back where it came from.

Let's keep the plastic trash island to a minimum, right?

Using the plastic bags is basically lazy. There are plenty of options out there if we would use them. Obviously, people are too lazy, also, to recycle properly.

do you know that 89% of the plastic trash found in the ocean is from Asia country's.. We do a really good job of dealing with our trash in a responsible way. Also we have learned to not littler.

Plastic bags are bad for the environment, and not great for hauling a lot of groceries. I prefer paper or reusable..

Too much plastic ends up in the oceans and rivers and wildlife is killed due to it. Less trash to use reusable bags. I have been using my own bags for years as CA charges you

Paper or plastic . . . . You have the option to use which ever you want.

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

Kids are way too addicted to their phones and it is affecting their learning. Phones could be kept in a basket in the classroom in case of emergency, but definitely NOT with the kid.

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

There are times that they shouldn't have them but check them at the door of class rooms to cut back on the use. Emergencies do happen and cells are useful
