Heard on the ABC news yesterday that S.A. are bringing in a bill to ban single use plastic bags , with some exemptions for meat products , vegtables etc.....
Why don't put a 5c refund on them as they do with cans , bottles
The trouble with life is there's no background music.

the refunds really seem to work...much more crap on the sides of the NSW Sturt and Barrier h'ways than on the SA roads. The NSW container manufacturers would scream blue murder though. B
ut the plastic bags? Well, I must admit I like them. They're light, clean, convenient hygeinic and they make great bin liners. Why can't they pick on something else (like plastic drinking straws or fast food wrappers...)
