Plastic Bag Ban

Help encourage Michiganders to lead the way in reducing global warming emissions by banning plastic grocery bags - and other states may do the same.
Plastic bags eat up fossil fuel, litter streets and choke wildlife. What's more, it is estimated that plastic bags can take between 500 and 1000 years to decompose!
We have proposed a ban on plastic bags for large grocers in Michigan. If this law were passed, large stores would have to offer customers bags made of recycled paper, plastic that can be composted or bags that can be reused.
According to a study by the UK-based Ban the Bag, only 0.5% of plastic bags are recycled. This means most bags are being thrown into waste dumps, where they will remain for hundreds of years.
Show your support for Michigan's ban on plastic bags, so that other states may follow suit. If you are a U.S. resident, a copy of your letter will also be sent to your state Governor!

Only one month ago I moved from Rochester Michigan to New Orleans. If there is one simple thing that we can all do to help it is this. I haven't used a plastic bag in six months and I hope to never use one again. I am very proud of this fourth grade class for being as thoughtful and pro-active as they are in creating this petition. I offer my full support. I hope to make this a law throughout the U.S.
