Interesting site about Modbury, the town that has banned plastic bags.
The video of a speech by Ray Anderson on the "Why and How to" page is
excellent.

and if anyone thinks this is OT for this ng check out the site.
I'd be more impressed if they were giving away reuseable bags.
You're still paying for your supermarket plastic bag, you just don't know
how much! People value what they pay for, so they'll use those bags
elsewhere, too.
So does anyone have first hand experiance of plastic free bags which can
be used for wet plants? (we would gladly change but have never found any)
