    Some of best sources for reusable shopping bags are free. Check with local environmental organizations and municipal government. Also keep an eye out for stores that give them away with a minimum purchase.

    The advert doesnt hit you enough…it makes the bags seems cute playing the soppy music and slowly rolling around and letting people touch it…just ban bags and people will find other ways…simple

    I completely agree with art, the only way plastic bag waste is going to be drastically reducedis if they are banned, or if there is a charge for them in grocery stores…a strategy which has worked well for a number of countries.
