Why did they start banning plastic grocery bags everywhere?

It’s due to the threat of a plastic pollution crisis.  The ocean is already filled with floating plastic, and we’re using plastic bags way too much.

That is terrible. I hope doing away with them helps.

I hope so too.  I’m personally very frustrated by the disposable bags.  I wish we could just reuse them.  Plastic bags actually biodegrade pretty well, but the problem is that they don’t break down evenly, so they get stuck in the ocean in a big big mess.

I already have my own bags I bring.
