Screw you California - Banning Plastic Bags

[El Diablo Blanco]

You'll have to dip into your savings for that. 

It's the principal of it.

[The True Adonis]

I reuse all the bags I get from grocery stores.  Perfect for trash bags, wrapping pizza and bread dough when rising and storing, great to have if you have pets and need to clean up after them, great to store things in, great to use outside when carrying tools, great to keep screws and things separate.

The real idea should be to promote reusage and re-purposing of bags.  Now, whoever makes the bags, no longer will make them and will fire on down the chain from concept to production.  All the uses I mentioned above that people do, will have to go out and buy more useless shit in place which, going with the environmentalist logic, would cause greater harm as more shit has to be produced to fill those voids.

But, you guys, Are. Combating. Climate. Change.  Give me a fucking break.

Same here.  those that call them "single use" are full of shit.  I clean up my dog poop with them.  I use them to carry lunch to work (the non dog poop ones).  I put old shit in them.

With threads like these I'm starting to wonder if half the posters are over 70.

Hemp based bags - 420 bag it!

[El Diablo Blanco]

Stores already factor in the cost of the bags in the goods they sell. Obviously they aren't going to lower their prices now. Plus at 10 cents a bag it probably means 9 cents in profit to them now. Save the environment or give more profits.

I reuse all my plastic bags, just like TA. It just makes sense.

Trump is pro-plastic bags

Trump is pro-plastic bags

He can't overturn a state law can he?

[Rudee]

Been 5 cents for plastic bags here in Canada for the past 6 years.

[The True Adonis]

Just thought of an idea.

Printed grocery bags with purposely "offensive" slogans and pictures on them for people who think the bag idea is bullshit.  Let them deal with that. hhahhahah

[TheFranchise]

Same here as TA and others. I reuse my Walmart plastic bags for other things and are easy to store as you can just bundle them up as a ball and use 1 to store whatever you want. I use mine to store homemade cleaning detergent among other stuff.

Liberals in CA and other places live in literal shitboxes and would not know how to clean anything, mow anything or take care of anything so the thought of reusing a bag would never occur.

TA, I found this for you.

hahah did the liberals in California think this shit out?  The extra water used in a water shortage state to wash these bags.  The detergent that will be used to wash the bags.  The energy it will take to power the washing machines in homes.

God these people are stupid.

LA has a nasty pollution cloud over it from an overflow of vehicles and many SUVs...but they're tackling that bag problem.
How do you not see the irony in that.  Plus, they've done studies on how recycling uses a lot of energy...somewhat negating the point of recycling.
Th best part about humans is, they are so grandiose that they truly feel they are bigger than the planet.

Someone should let the recyclers know that they're a small part of the world.  You want to impact your footprint.  Take a bicycle around town...oh wait, too much hassle?

We all know humans will self destruct way before "climate change" will hammer down its imaginary gauntlet.

TA, the only issue I have is finding some place to store all my plastic bags. Where do you store them? I mean, eventually, it could become a hassle, especially if one grocery shops a lot. It could also be a potential fire hazard. Just sayin'

Its not.

Try this.  You know those large oatmeal containers of Quaker Oats?  Just use that.  Cram them in there.  You can get over 100 in there plus easily.

Getbig, people helping people.  I'm glad we're on to the big issues here...finally.  Enough about posing oil and Trumped up trickle down.

Where do I put my oatmeal?

[BodyMachine]

Austin TX is the same

The same place you put random cocks, in your mouth, then put the bags in the empty container.
