theres also swivel packages, spoon packages, plug packages, weight packages, jig packages, bait packages, pink worm packages, hook packages...


should i continue?

all of which goes into ONE plastic bag, or a couple in larger amounts


banning plastic bags isnt going to do sh!t for the environment, when you put 5 times the amount of plastic into your cloth bags some people swear by... then buy plastic garbage bags and spend money on the problem said in the process...

Cloth diapers are no panacea.

Cleaning them uses vast quantities of our most valuable resource. And most valuable by a huge f'n margin.

20 or 30 years from now people won't even think about using cloth diapers.

That's my prediction. Buy water rights now.

Cloth diapers are still pretty common in many communities, B'ham being one. We shared a daycare student with a neighbor. They used them. They didn't actually seem to be too much work. I had to change quite a few of them and prep them for their washing machine. Several coworkers use them for their kids. I didn't use them. Thankfully my kids potty trained fairly early (girls).

I also use those grocery bags as garbage liners in the bathroom and bedrooms. I use cloth grocery bags but sometimes forget orend up getting plastic with a 6-pack.

I actually don't worry too much about "filling up landfills" I work in the buisiness of solid waste. We aren't lacking in landfill space. On the other hand, I don't need weekly garbage service because I compost and eat very little prepackaged food. I like to eat too much to eat crap from a box.

I think the plastic bag bans are stupid. Read that Braindead Island passed one of these laws. Maybe I'm a little libertarian in that there are too many laws. They already have litering laws. Plastic bags are used for waste of all kinds. I reuse most of my plastic bags for bathroom trash can liners if I don't have any of the small size plastic bags. I'm going to throw away some old fish and carcusses in the garbage tonight so the blood doesn't leak and stink up my bargage container. I use plastic bags to clean up dog poop in the yard and put in the garbage as it's better than shoveling it in the compost as fecal matter can be washed in the bay. Also you can throw extra plastic bags in the recycle bin or recycle at stores. Yeah we've used the cloth bags but never seem to have them when going to the grocery. A lot of times I just grab a few goods and decline a bag like tonight.

In the meantime kids remeber to practice safe sex, go use a condom or diaphram or reuse your plastic bag as WHO says gonerrhea is making a come-back!

Gosh Redhook you have bacteria living along, long time. With all those thoughts bounce off in your head, you seriously should sign up for some course at the community college. You think alot! Very technical but not very informed.

Biggest threats ecoli & salmonella. Ecoli comes from soil, poop or bad water. Salmonella is heat resistant so pretty much will do yourself a disfavor by reheating 1 too many times. Some bacteria can live along time, not as long as you think though. Rub your hands together if you are a germ a fobe. Friction is mind boggling! Automatic dishwashing soap kills via PH, regular soap binds w/ water to wash away the scary things like nose & butt picking.

Dirty diapers- yuck - not sure why anyone would want to discuss such a matter.

BTW, I think we should genetically modify rats to eat plastic - sharks do - they even eat tires so we just need to inject some shark cells somehow into the rats.

From AM's Bleeding Heart post.........
Quote:
Every year, tens of thousands of whales, birds, seals, and turtles die from contact with ocean-borne plastic bags. The animals may mistake the bags for food, such as jellyfish, or simply become entangled. Plastic bags can take up to 1,000 years to break down, so even when an animal dies and decays after ingesting a bag, the plastic re-enters the environment, posing a continuing threat to wildlife. While most plastic bags eventually break down into tiny particles, smaller sea creatures may still eat the sand-sized fragments and concentrate toxic chemicals in their bodies.


FK me
So much sensationalized BS in that paragraph alone it makes me want to puke.
the animals may
the plastic bags may
the smaller creatures may

The girl who wrote that crap should be "bagged"........er, double bagged.

Gawd

I'd believe the second part before the first.

I thought the main reason for the bag ban is because they fly through the air and then get tangled in something?

I honestly don't give a [Bleeeeep!]. I'll adapt because I'm not ancient goat.

Given the choice, I'd ban water bottles before bags. Been to a beach lately?

That might be funny, if I thought you were kidding...but you're probably serious.

Fish on...

Todd

P.S. Throw a few six pack holders and cigarette butts in the river while you're there, too, and take a good ol' 'Merican $hit right on the bank while you're at it.

Is a 'moreon' someone who's more of a moron than the basic, run-of-the-mill moron?

Salmo-

Just admit it you were one of the supporters of the plastic bag to decrease timber removal and save the earth...Now what?

Some of these people think there so fuking smart when it comes to saving the earth if thats the case why wasnt the plastic bag eco destroyer thought about before implemented.
We all know plastic does not deteriorate. Paper is a renewable resource that can be recycled several times over while other trees are growing. There are ways of harvesting timber without huge enviro impacts.
