THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT CLIMATE CHANGE IS VERY REAL. I TRIED TO DENY IT BUT WHEN YOU HAVE AL SHARPTON MAKING COMMERCIALS WITH PAT ROBERTSON AND NEWT GINGRINCH DOING COMMERCIALS WITH ANNCY PELOSI ALL FOR THIS-THEN THAT'S A LOUD AND CLEAR SIGNAL. Go to www.dakshidin.com for the environment uptick on other energy source(mainly air and wind-I saw on Glen Beck about the air powered car-HOPE SO!)and www.greenglobeint.com for the companies that specialize in tourism and traveling in the most green way because traveling is very, very much a pollutant as people discard and tarvel more frivilous than when they are home.

Simple: If a store has no plastic bag option - then they'll be no plastic bag usage. People will adjust. Are consumers really going to skip going to their local grocer b/c they don't have plastic bags??? Look at the millions that traipse through these mega member stores, (e.g.,Cotsco, Sam's Club), scrambling to find empty boxes for their purchases since no bags, paper or plastic, are offered....and consumers are still shop there in droves. Forced green thinking. It'll work. And yeah, consumers will feel "hip" leaving the store.

We save our plastic bags and take them back. We don't consider ourselves environmental wackos - its just the right thing to do.
