Your Turn

Paper or plastic? Los Angeles has just become the largest city in the US to get rid of plastic bags in grocery stores. Beginning in January, there will be no more plastic and if you want paper, it will cost you ten cents which the store gets to keep. Right now, West Hollywood already has this law and I have no problem with the law except for one minor thing. The paper bags always break unless you double bag them which then costs you 20 cents for each one you fill.  Yes, you can bring your own bags, but it always seems like you end up with more than fit in your canvas bags and sometimes you forget them. Plus, I have found paper bags work much better at a grocery store than they do at Target for instance where items are not as easily put into paper bags.
