  1. A slightly aggressive technique, but then we need such a change of thinking that only a forced approach will work!

    Businesses can try and flog reusable bags with their branding on, that might help advertising too.

  2. Definitely a step in the right direction! The bloody things are such a waste. And now, with more shops offering cloth bag alternatives, this should become an international policy. The government hands out bags around holidays for food bank donations, which is great, but they should start sending out cloth bags as well for general use!

  3. I’ll admit to not bringing my own bag, but I do reuse them for picking up dog doo, liners for wastebaskets in bathrooms, etc.

    Are there any other creative uses for them ?

  5. I don’t always remember my cloth bags (I’ve bought many!!) but when I do get plastic bags I try to reuse them whenever possible.

  6. I’m hearing more and more about this and think it’s about time! I’m glad to see that another city is jumping on the band wagon.
    I live in the greater Seattle area and there have been discussions about this around here. Last I heard they were going to start charging in King County for plastic bags. I don’t think it has been finalized. There are a lot of businesses and some people a bit miffed at the idea. But I think it will happen in the next couple of years.

  7. I think that recycled durable bags are great educational tools in conjunction with plastic bag recycling programs.

  8. Reusable bags are great alternative to plastic and paper, try using these http://www.bee-eazybags.com a CT based reusable bag company… Great design and very unique.

  9. Your writing style is quite a god guide for me if you like – I have recently started my own blog and I am really struggling to write articles!

  10. I actulay think the papeer bag was better. Yes they cut trees down but they could also use recycled paper. Cloth bags are great and i use them but they should also use paper more instead of plastics for alot of things.

  11. Nice post and blog! Greets.
