Imagine every day, all day long, each person shopping is filling their carts full with plastic produce bags for each single item of produce. If everyone used their own reusable produce bags, we can eliminate a tremendous amount of plastic right there.

People Who Signed the Pledge
Ellen I, WA
Comment: Along with using reusable produce bags, I've also started bringing my own containers for bulk purchases, attaching two pieces of masking tape, one for the tare weight and one for the item number. As time goes on, more and more checkers know how to subtract the tare weights.
Kay E, WA
Comment: I am looking forward to stores not packaging so much in plastic! I will help by reusing bags when I buy produce.
Bhenni J, WI
Comment: I have already refused to use produce bags as they are a wasteful way of transporting produce from the store to my home. I either use nothing, or I bring a cloth bag with me, but I have placed an order from Amazon for some reusable produce bags. There is really no excuse to use paper or plastic. This society has become lazy and dont want to bring in their own bags, even though most people WANT to reuse. They just need an incentive to do so, and if more stores ban plastic and paper, people will get used to just carrying in their own bags to a store. Collapsible baskets would even be a better choice than paper or plastic.
