BAN PLASTIC BAGS IN CANADA
We are asking Canada's Environmental Minister, John Baird's help to implement an immediate ban on free plastic bags, and to ban plastic bags altogether throughout the country by July 2009.
Plastic never breaks down entirely. Instead, potentially carcinogen plastic fragments mix in with our water, soil and food, making its way into our bodies.
Avoiding plastic bags is the simplest way we can reduce oil consumption, preserve our environment our and children's futures.
Please sign this petition today to ban plastic bags in Canada and lead the way towards a greener future. Together we can make a difference!
