I have mixed feelings about this. I always ask for plastic bags at the grocery store because I re use them as trash bags around the house and in the car. But a friend of mine, after a trip to India, told me how areas of that country are littered with plastic bags. She said the trees and bushes are so full of plastic bags blowing in the wind that the scene is supernatural looking, especially at night.
I don't mean to sound callous...but India, clean up your own mess!!!
