A very informative presentation about our dilemma with plastic bags: http://www.wsu.edu/~mejia/TheDangersof_PlasticBags.pps thanx, janie!
neat slideshow, suprised to see China have banned them and Ireland have taken the lead in Europe but the UK is still doing very very little to reduce consumption!
its funny, cause i just got newsletter from website this morning about recycled plastic bags...there is a group (CONSERVE) that hires people to pick up bags and wash them for recycling to make new things like these http://veganslovelava.ca/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=31&products_id=109 its kind of mind blowing though how many bags there are out there and the damage they cause..
