If the US ever bans plastic bags, I'm moving somewhere free, like North Korea.

Kidding aside, I use the bags as trash can liners, among other things.

We can't ban every item that causes the smallest impact on the environment. If we really wanted to save the earth, we would ban people... but then nature would be pointless.

It's insane that bottled water costs more than gasoline, and it's annoying to see how wasteful the bottles are, but as much as I despise the thought of bottled of water, I can't impose my judgement on others.
