Chapter 10:

In Chapter ten he revisits the topic of plastic. Plastic is not going anywhere anytime soon because they are not biodegradable. I work at a grocery store and we use way too many plastic bags and some paper bags. However, now we have reusable bags some one dollar others a little more, but they last for quite a long time. By 2014, the use of plastic bags will cost ten cents each and that sucks for those who load their kitchen and are trying to save money. I think that it is a great step of getting rid of plastic and paper bags. The creator of reusable bags is Andy Keller who was at first a software trader and now working with landscaping. The name of his bag brand is Chicobag. It is a great product to stuff in your bag for later use. These bags are not made in the U.S., but China and Vietnam and are made out of recyclable material. This helps reduce the amount of fossil fuel we use for plastic bags. This is a great little but big Breakthrough for our trash epidemic. Just a creation of a bag has made a big difference... i wonder what will come next? Hopefully our younger generation will find a way to get rid of all of our trash or help get the word out.
