Discussion:
In 2012, the U.S produced over 250 million tons of garbage. One component of this waste consisted of oil based plastic bags, which are utilized excessively by grocers, restaurants, and stores nationwide. In order to reduce this source of waste, many countries are banning plastic bags or taxing customers for their uses.
What are two environmental problems caused by plastic bag use? What plan/action night be proposed to reduce or eliminate use? What would be the economic impacts of implementing your plan versus the financial impacts of making no change in our current use.
What are two scholarly sources that supports this topic?
