Someone should think about the “data” of bags. In Dallas Ft Worth we have 6,000,000 people, if 10% go shopping for grocieries and take 3 bags that is 1.8 million plastic bags EVERY DAY... cut the number in half - 1 MILLION. Now add all the bags at Lowes, Home Depot and other retail stores - like Target, WalMart or Subway. I bet that in DFW we move 2 MILLION bags a day. How many do we see in trees or on river banks - as a percentage of that daily number? In 30 days 60 million bags? How many are discarded, but how many are reused for dog poop, kitty litter or garbage in the house?
There is another bit of data that we won’t be able to collect for a while. What happens when those so called green bags become as plentiful as klenex? I wonder if the liberals will like the look of those decorating the trees any better.
