Ban Plastic Bags in Atlantic Canada
- Target: To ban plastic bags in grocery stores
- Sponsored by: Kelly Messom
"Sobeys and Pete's Frootique are encouraging the use of reusable shopping bags, and the Atlantic Superstore on Quinpool Road in Halifax plans to stop giving out plastic bags on Feb. 21."
"Chinese and Australian authorities recently outlawed plastic shopping bags because of pollution and energy concerns. The South African government has taken similar steps, and Ireland is taxing bags, significantly reducing their use.
In North America, San Francisco has banned plastic bags, and last year the northern Manitoba town of Leaf Rapids became the first place in Canada to do the same."
