Plastic Rap

Found this in the SF Weekly newspaper today that was left behind at my table at the public space on 2nd and Mission. Some fascinating points in it, and, I thought of one more...

Normally, San Francisco has some pretty wet winters (just not the last three of them, but still...), and while the paper bags may have more of a time of disintergration in the landfill, the glue that binds their handles to their bag is just waiting to be washed away with a little strain on it.

Ireland seems to have a brilliant idea: brown bag your own bag or get fined/charged.
