Many, many, many moons ago I worked at Safeway when the very first plastic bags came out. They were absolutely horrible, and spawned the now defunct ‘paper or plastic.’ The original ‘reason’ for the plastic was to ‘save the trees.’ I tell people that we can grow trees like we grow corn.

“I tell people that we can grow trees like we grow corn.”

Continental Can used to grow trees everywhere for it’s paper packaging division. They let responsible hunters use the land for deer hunting.

Trees for paperis the original renewable resource.
