In response to a friend’s post:
I just found out from my wife that New York State is outlawing plastic grocery bags starting March 1st.
My first question:
“Then how are we going to line the mini trash cans in our bathrooms and minivans?”

2 comments I made:
- A good step in the right direction. Plastic is so awful for the environment. I really wish they would stop packaging every little thing in unnecessary packaging.
- Corporations will not make these changes out of the goodness of their hearts either, they need their hand forced by laws. Styrofoam needs to die as well.This stuff is serious business. Things are heading to a crisis point if they don’t change and reverse NOW. Temperatures are rising at unoresidented rates. We are already seeing the effects of it and it’s scary as hell.Just because it’s one of many things doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be done. We need to get rid of the black and white/ all or nothing thinking (ex. Why bother, this doesn’t fix all of our problems…). We can’t just do nothing.
