Companies whose futures depend on plastic production are trying to persuade the federal government to allow them to put the label “recyclable” on plastic shopping bags and other items virtually guaranteed to end up in landfills and incinerators.

I switched to reusable shopping bags along with the rest of Colorado when they enacted a ban this year and honestly prefer them now. Once you get in the habit of bringing them to stores it’s easy.

      Well if you want to go back to the original defnitions esp. In paris during the rennaissance then that’s fine by me.
