Banning Bags
Wednesday, April 04, 2007
This week the San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted to mandate the use of biodegradable plastic bags in local stores. Jared Blumenfeld, Director of the San Francisco Department of the Environment, and Donna Dempsey, Executive Director of the Film and Bag Federation debate the pros and cons of enacting a similar rule in New York.

Can anybody tell me, if there is a true biodegradable plastic bag on the market ?
I am taking cloth bags for shopping, but I have not yet managed to find something for the kitchen trash that is eco-friendly. Can anybody suggest something for the trash ?
