So, I've been thinking a lot recently about the environmental implications of plastic bag usage. In terms of the damage they do to the environment, it's clear that it's a significant issue. The waste, the pollution, the energy to manufacture, not to mention the harm they inflict on wildlife. With all this in mind, I'm wondering what the thoughts of you folks are in this matter? Where do you stand on this issue?

Are there any specific examples of communities or regions that have successfully cut down on plastic bag usage that we could look at as a model? How did they manage consumer behavior change?
