PAPER OR PAPER??

We use plastic in about everything we use. Bottles, tape, CDs, and mostly to carry many things at an easier rate. So why may you ask that an article described the prospect of having plastic bags banned in San Francisco? Maybe because plastic bags have become an obvious source of litter in San Francisco and may be linked to the problem of global warming. Another important reason for this decision because plastic comes from oil, which we are losing more and more every day and will eventually run out. With about 2 million bags used every day, this is an important issue.

Many countries have already begun the progress of lessening the use of plastic bags. In 2003, Africa had outlawed the use of plastic bags and from Bangladesh. In 2002, Ireland issued a plastic tax that limited the production and in France has already considered the ban of plastic bags at the end of 2007. As we can see, the use of plastic bags have become important issue needed to be discussed, so next time you go to the supermarket ask for paper not plastic!!!
