TWG MEETING AT CONGRESS ON PLASTIC BAGS
Barely a week after the Congressional Hearing on
Plastic Bags, the Committee on Ecology immediately
calls a follow-through session with the Technical
Working Group on 12 Feb. 2015 to thresh out what
had been discussed the previous week. The Cong.
Committee on Ecology has adopted the position of
PAGASA to make retailers into collectors of used
plastic bags so that they may return these to recyclers
to make the ecological cycle of plastic bags run full
circle. Customers who do not surrender used plastic
bags to retailers will be charged a minimal fee as
penalty for not acting as a responsible citizen of
this planet and not doing their share in protecting
our environment. PAGASA reiterates that the real
issues are disposable vs. reusable and the proper
disposal of reusables.
