Abstract

The article comments on issues concerning the use of plastic bags around the world. It is stated that San Francisco has become the first major city in the U.S. to start banning nonbiodegradable plastic bags in its larger grocery stores and pharmacies. The Swedish company Ikea AB in March 2007 brought its campaign "Bag the Plastic Bag" to America to decrease the use of plastic bags. It is informed that the use of plastic bags dropped by 90 percent when Ireland slapped a tax on plastic bags.
