Plastic bags

Here is an interesting presentation on the environmental impact of those little plastic bags that we get at the grocery stores. I try to do my part - as a Christian and as an American (which means that my part is bigger than many others') to recycle, to minimize my energy use and ecological footprint in general (since it is already disproportionately huge).

Personally, I prefer the old paper bags anyways, I would love to see them make a resurgence. Especially the really nice ones that had handles.
