The use of plastic bags in the Canadian city of Calgary is possibly to coming to an end. A recent city council gathering saw huge support for an effort to considerably reduce the usage of plastic shopping bag, and included suggestions of affordable alternatives for businesses to supply their customers with.
Stats were recently released which seem to move more and more people to join the movement to have Calgary become a plastic bag free city. The numbers indicate that a vast majority of plastic bags end up in landfills, with only four percent being recycled. A further report with more information and suggestions is expected to be released by May.
