I bought a box of this brand* last year and they are stronger than normal grocery store bags …
Really good to know, and thanks ! When and if it ever comes down to it here in COmmierado, I'lll have a solution ready-to-go.
I think the environmental effects of the plastic bags at least as used by King Soopers (Kroger, City Market) is pretty minimal and is wayyy overblown. We do have laws about covering trash in transit to the dump, after all.
I keep a wad of them in my car for various things and and I was surprised that they disintegrate all by themselves just from the heat in the car... not even in nice wet bio-rich soil. Just in air and heat and light in the back of my station wagon.
I don't know about grocery bags hanging in trees... maybe one or two after a high wind or something
along with other windblown junk, but not normally and certainly not as routinely as implied. I hate to offend anyone but I'm about ready to call BS on that one. Or maybe just "exaggeration for the sake of a good story."
Yeah, that's the ticket. Triggered by one, told to be ten.
Thanks again, Chester32141.
