California State Wide Ban on Plastic bags?

By on August 31, 2014

California awaits Gov. Jerry Brown’s approval or disapproval for the proposal and would be ban on grocery and convenience stores from providing plastic bags for their customers. Shoppers would have to either bring their own bags or pay 10 cents at the checkout for a paper or reusable plastic bag. If signed this would be the first state-wide ban.  Proponents of the ban say plastic bags are often not recycled and pollute the environment with hard-to-eliminate waste. A lot of that waste makes its way to the ocean, where activists say it poses a hazard to marine wildlife. Although most stores in Los Angeles have already adopted a active rule of thumb, consumers continue to pay 10 cents per bag or provide their own, we look forward to an official decision by California’s Gov. otherwise it will most likely remain the same.
