Right now, I reuse the plastic bags for my trash bags, but it would be cool if I could use them for the much larger Compost/Food waste that goes in the Lawn/Yard giant can instead, since they would compost.
Where did that 13% recycled figure come from? Seems really odd considering a much, much higher percentage of the rest of the city's garbage is recycled.
This goes into effect in July assuming that the plastic bag companies don't buy another 20k signatures and put it on the ballot. If that does happen, however, the American Grocers council may be willing to step in to support the ban as they had quite a bit of influence on how the law was worded, and they support it as a cost-cutting measure.

Oil-based bags are so 20th Century ...
