Very sad. Its good to see this starting to change, it's sad the US lags the world in yet another area.

This is a great link, thanks for sharing. We reuse our plastic bags for garbage, but I also have reusable cloth bags that I use for other things, too.

Along the lines of toxic things, have any of you heard that latest report on pvc shower curtains? You might want to look... it affects all of us!

Actually, this second link is much better, because it goes into much more detail, and also goes along with what I read in the newspaper.

oops I killed your thread. Sorry.

hey, you read the Pocono Record in California?

They should really ban plastic bags -- plastic everything really. It's starting to end up in our food sources now...
