We only get one planet, Save it for the next generation. Plastic bottles and shopping bags have caused enough damage in 30 years. Before that humans used paper bags and glass bottles.

Reusable bags are great for the environment and It's really not that hard to bring them to the store.

I keep them in the car but sometimes do forget to take them into the store, when I do forget I just ask the clerks to put the items back into the basket and then bag them when I get to the car.

90% of the planet's ocean plastic pollution comes from 10 rivers: 8 in Asia and 2 in Africa. Banning the miniscule Oregon contribution of plastic bags and straws is absurd.

People bring dirty bags, I believe this isn't a good thing.

No and don't plan too! We have been saving the plastic bags for months and will continue to use them.

Can’t ever remember the reusable ones. It’s my one luxury. And our store gives paper bags most the time and I reuse all the bags.

Can you imagine some of the most disgusting homes these bags come from?

(5) Why does north bound 20 exit to the right? This required a new overpass to be built over the new highway, only to dump you immediately into another righthand exit, using the other recently built overpass/cloverleaf interchange. Is Bend not aware of exiting on the left?
