        If it's not biodegradable, it needs to go.

        The plastic bags are quite handy to pick up dog waste when I take my dog for a walk. @ed_retired62

        Mexico uses biodegradable plastic bags. My problem is with all the other foodstuff and products swathed in plastic, including water.

        Ban them! And, plastic water and soda bottles also!

        I disagree. There are many things we use made of plastic. Water is necessary. Soda not. Go back to aluminum cans.

        Yes, we should use other containers. Water is necessary, of course. Plastic is not. Ubiquitous water bottles is a recent trend. No sense.

        This seems pretty archaic but this falls on the grocery stores as well. If they didn't provide them, people would change. Or switch to paper

        Also ban receipts while we are at it. Nobody keeps receipts and if u do, get them emailed.

        Really? Because plastic bags and receipts are a waste? You are super cool.
