KAMO-Fm is a radio station in Rogers, AR — I like @FreeFunInAustin to. In regards to bags I hate the ban…mainly because of my thriftiness and using the bags for trash. As I wrote in my letter to the editor in the Chronicle last year, my wife and I use the plastic bags in the small trash cans around the house. So the ban does not eliminate any bags. Rather instead forces us to buy bags not in our budget to line those cans, thus just replacing one plastic bag with another.
@twitter-635063051:disqus, I reuse my grocery bags in the same way, and recycle the extras at area H-E-B’s.
My full time job is at the Randall’s in Lakeway and people can recycle plastic bags there to, and they won’t be affected by the ban. Other then maybe having some people drive there to still get plastic bags.
The bag ban is a terrible idea. Just wait, people will be getting sick from those reusable bags. They already are in other parts of the country.
